Anti-inflammatory effects of butyrate-producing atypical Escherichia coli in murine DSS colitis model. (A) Scheme of the experiment. Eight-week-old male C57BL/6 mice were treated 1×108 bacteria or PBS daily by oral gavage. (B) Body weight was checked during the 12 days before and after induction of colitis by 2.5% DSS added to the drinking water from day 3 of gavage and continued for 7 days. All mice were euthanized on day 12 of the study and disease activity index (C), colon length (D), periodic acid-Schiff staining (E), histopathological score (F), and survival rates (G) were analyzed. Data are expressed as the mean±standard error of the mean (n=4). Analyses were performed using two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by Tukey multiple comparison test (B, C) and one-way ANOVA followed by Holm-Sidak multiple comparison test (D, F). avs. control: P<0.001, b-dvs. DSS+PBS group or between indicated groups: bP<0.05, cP<0.01, cP<0.001. PBS, phosphate buffered saline-treated vehicle; DSS, dextran sulfate sodium treated; atEc, atypical E. coli-treated; butyrate atEc, butyrate atypical E. coli-treated.
