Summary of the results of RT-PCR of TLR-related genes in LI. The molecules involved in TLR signaling are shown in two clusters: one leads to the induction of proinflammatory cytokines in an NFκB-dependent manner, and the other leads to the production of type 1 IFN in an NFκB-independent manner. Expression levels are represented by columns indicating the relative value of each group normalized to the maximum value in the four groups. Number represents fold-change to the expression level in SPF. Brown, GF; ocher, 0WexGF; light green, 5WexGF; dark green, SPF. Differences compared with SPF mice were analyzed by Dunnet test. * p < 0.05.
