LPS injection strongly induced IDO1 expression only in the dorsal hippocampus of animals that received chronic treatment with VTX, while in the ventral hippocampus, IDO was significantly higher in LPS-treated mice regardless of treatment. Gene expression results are shown as fold changes relative to saline-treated control (standard diet) group. Bar graphs representing the expression of IDO1 in the (A) dorsal hippocampus or in the (B) ventral hippocampus. Treatment as indicated in the legend, n = 9–10 mice per group. Data are represented as means ± SEM and were analyzed with ANOVA followed by Tukey’s HSD (two-way ANOVA: ◦◦◦ p < 0.001 main effect LPS/saline; +++ p < 0.001 LPS/saline* standard/VTX-enriched diet interaction; post hoc *p < 0.05, ***p < 0.001 indicate significant difference compared to saline-treated matching group; # p < 0.05 indicates significant difference compared to matching control group).
