Lactobacillus reuteri Maintains a Functional Mucosal Barrier during DSS Treatment Despite Mucus Layer Dysfunction
Figure 1
Disease activity index in animals treated with DSS alone or Lactobacillus reuteri+DSS.
In the first group, DSS were given in the drinking water for 9 days. In the second, 109 L. reuteri/day were given by gavage for 16 days and DSS were given for the last 9 days of the treatment. *p<0.05 DSS vs. L. reuteri+DSS.
