Figure 6

Effect of LP-YS4 on (a) nNOS, (b) eNOS, (c) iNOS, (d) c-Kit, and (e) SCF mRNA expression in mouse colon. Data are presented as the mean ± standard deviation. (A–E) Different letters mean values are significantly different () according to Tukey’s honestly significantly different test. LP-YS4-L: mice treated with a low concentration of Lactobacillus plantarum YS4 (1.0 × 108 CFU/kg); LP-YS4-H: mice treated with a high concentration of Lactobacillus plantarum YS4 (1.0 × 109 CFU/kg); and LB : mice treated with Lactobacillus bulgaricus (1.0 × 109 CFU/kg).
