OGA enzymatic functions are required for bacterial OGAs’ protective effects on DSS-induced colitis. (A) Schematic outline of the DSS-colitis model and the treatment approach. (B) Immunoblot analysis of O-GlcNAc levels in colonic tissue lysates of mice. (C–F) Disease severity of DSS-colitis mice treated with wild type enzymes or their active sites mutants: body weight change (C), histology manifestation on H&E staining (D), scale bar: 200 µm, colon length (E) and inflammation score (F). (G–J) Proinflammatory cytokines in colonic tissue lysates. Data represent the mean of three repeats per group with the SD; *P<0.05, **P<0.01, ***P<0.001. DSS, dextran sulfate sodium; IL, interleukin; OGA, O-GlcNAcase; TNF, tumour necrosis factor.
