Pectin protects mice with CDI from intestinal infection by enhancing AhR pathway activation. (A, B) Relative mRNA levels of IL-22 and AhR in colon tissue. *, P<0.05; **, P<0.01; ***, P<0.001; ns, differences are not significant. (C, D) Body weight changes and survival curves of the mice with CDI treated with the AhR antagonist CH223191. *, CCDI vs PCDI+ CH223191, P<0.05; #, PCDI vs PCDI+ CH223191, P<0.05. (E) Relative mRNA levels of ZO-1 in colon tissues. (F, G) Body weight changes and survival curves of the mice with CDI treated with the AhR agonist FICZ. #, CCDI vs CCDI+FIZC, P<0.05. (H) Relative mRNA levels of ZO-1 in colon tissues.
