From: Helicobacter suis infection alters glycosylation and decreases the pathogen growth inhibiting effect and binding avidity of gastric mucins

H. suis binding to pig gastric mucins isolated from pigs with or without H. suis infection. a, b H. suis binding to pig gastric mucin samples at pH 2. a The data points represent the binding to surface soluble, surface insoluble, gland soluble, and gland insoluble mucins from each pig. b The data points represent the average binding signal from the four mucin sources from each pig. c, d H. suis binding to pig gastric mucin samples at pH 7. c The data points represent the binding to surface soluble, surface insoluble, gland soluble, and gland insoluble mucins from each pig. d The data points represent the average binding signal from the four mucin sources from each pig. ○ Surface soluble, ● Gland soluble, □ Surface insoluble, ■ Gland insoluble, ▲Mean binding value of the four mucin sources per pig. The pig marked in gray carried a second H. suis strain in addition to the strain used in the experimental infection. Statistics: a, c: *p < 0.05, two-way ANOVA, the bars represent mean ± SEM, b, d, the bars represent median with range. The results were reproduced twice
