Role of TLR5 in the Translocation and Dissemination of Commensal Bacteria in the Intestine after Traumatic Hemorrhagic Shock

Figure 5

Effect of RA gavage on bacterial translocation in WT mice subjected to THS. Mice with or without RA treatment were sacrificed approximately 5 hours after C. rodentium challenge. Tissue samples were homogenized and cultured. Subsequently, bacterial abundance was calculated based on IVIS data. Samples were obtained from the MLNs (a), liver (b), blood (c), and spleen (d). Meanwhile, we determined the percentage of TH1 cells 48 hours after THS in the LP after RA treatment (e, f). Bacterial translocation data are expressed as . TH1 data are expressed as the , and each group contained 8 animals. All significant values are marked, and is considered significant by the one-way ANOVA test. Data represent three independent experiments.
