P. gingivalis administration induces gut barrier dysfunction. (A) Expression of Tjp1 in the small intestines. cDNA was amplified with primers specific for Tjp1 (n=6-10/group). The relative quantity of mRNA was normalized to that of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase mRNA. (B) Immunofluorescence analysis of E-cadherin in large intestines from each group. Red: E-cadherin, blue: DAPI, scale bars: 50 μm. (C) Serum endotoxin levels in the various groups (n=6-10/group). Data are expressed as the mean ± standard error of the mean (SEM). P values were calculated using one-way ANOVA with Tukey’s multiple comparisons test. ***P < 0.001, ****P < 0.0001.
