Jussara (Euterpe edulis Mart.) Supplementation during Pregnancy and Lactation Modulates the Gene and Protein Expression of Inflammation Biomarkers Induced by trans-Fatty Acids in the Colon of Offspring

Figure 2

Gene expression of IL-6 receptor (IL-6R) (a), tumor necrosis factor-α receptor (TNF-αR) (b), Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) (c), and DNA levels of Lactobacillus spp. in 21-day-old offspring colon (d). C: offspring of dams fed control diet; CJ: offspring of dams fed control diet supplemented with 0.5% freeze-dried Jussara powder; T: offspring of dams fed diet enriched with hydrogenated vegetable fat, TFAs; TJ: offspring of dams fed diet enriched with TFAs supplemented with 0.5% freeze-dried Jussara powder. Data are means ± SEMs. The number in parentheses refers to the sample value. Results are expressed in arbitrary units, stipulating 100 as the control value. versus C. versus T.
