NADPH oxidase-1 deficiency offers little protection in Salmonella typhimurium-induced typhlitis in mice

Figure 3 Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction analysis of cecum mRNA from the 2 × 10⁶ CFU-treated wild-type and Nox1-knockout mice to measure inflammation markers IL-β (A), TNF-α (B), a brush border marker for the integrity of the epithelium, Alpi (C); and Duox2 levels (D). Horizontal bars are mean ± SD. The groups with different letter designations in each figure are different, where a > b > c (α = 0.05). The groups sharing a same letter are not different; e.g., bc is not different from b or ab group. Nox1-KO: Nox1-knockout; WT: Wild-type.
