Extended Data Fig. 6: Mouse serum cytokine response.

a,b, Cytokines after V. atypica and L. bulgaricus gavage. Each mouse sample is represented as an individual point, with the central bar representing the mean and error bars representing s.e.m. (n = 64, 32 and 32 for baseline, L. bulgaricus and V. atypica, respectively). c,d, Cytokines after intrarectal propionate instillation. Each mouse sample is represented as an individual point, with the central bar representing the mean and error bars representing s.e.m. (n = 32, 16 and 16 for baseline, L. bulgaricus and V. atypica, respectively). P values were determined by one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s posthoc test.
