1. Determination of IL-5+ and IL-6+ cells in the lamina propria of the small intestines of mice receiving L. casei administration.
Determination of IL-5+ and IL-6+ cells in the lamina propria of the small intestines of mice receiving L. casei administration. (Top) Effect of L. casei on IL-5 production; (bottom) effect of L. casei on IL-6 production. Positive cells for these cytokines were determined on histological sections from the small intestine of the test and control groups by indirect immunofluorescence assays. Values are means of results for 3 mice ± SD. Significant differences were calculated in comparison with the untreated control group (*, P < 0.001).
