Inflammatory mediator expression in tissue from ileum, cecum and colon. Intestinal tissue from (A) ileum, (B) cecum, and (C) colon was harvested from control and MN mice. mRNA expression of selected inflammatory mediators and markers of inflammation was determined by qRT-PCR. Fold-change of expression in MN mice was determined relative to the mean expression in tissue from control mice. Data are presented as the median with interquartile range. (*p < 0.05; **p < 0.01; ***p < 0.001).
