Fig. 7

C. jejuni infected Humicrobiota mice have significantly elevated colon IL-4 cytokine responses at five but not seven weeks post infection when compared to sham inoculated Humicrobiota mice or C. jejuni infected Convmicrobiota mice. Panels represent fold change in interferon gamma (IFN-γ) (a and c) and IL-4 responses (b and d) over responses of the sham inoculated mice. Panels a and b are from mice in the Pilot experiment sacrificed at 5 weeks post infection while panels c and d are from mice in Experiment 1 sacrificed at 7 weeks post infection. IFN-γ and IL-4 mRNA levels were measured in proximal colon homogenates from all mice in the respective groups shown on the X axis. Data were analyzed by Kruskal-Wallis test on ranks and Dunn’s post-test where appropriate; p≤0.05 was considered statistically significant
