From: Host-microbiota interaction-mediated resistance to inflammatory bowel disease in pigs
Analysis of the response of the gut barrier to inflammation based on transcriptome data. a Heat map showing the changes in inflammatory cytokines associated with different types of immunity in colon homogenate isolated from Min pigs and Yorkshire pigs after DSS treatment (n = 6 samples/group). b Relative expression levels of pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) in Min pigs and Yorkshire pigs after DSS treatment as detected by qRT-PCR (n = 6 samples/group). c Confirmation of autoantibody secretion in Min pigs and Yorkshire pigs after DSS treatment. d To evaluate the mechanical barrier, tight junction (TJ) proteins in Min pigs and Yorkshire pigs treated with DSS were quantified by ELISA
