Vancomycin could decrease the severity of colitis.

(A) Schematic of administration of antibiotics to AOM/DSS-treated mice. (B) Statistical analysis of colon length at day 10 (n = 6). (C) H&E staining of distal colon at day 10. Scale bar: 100 μm. D. Histology scores of colons at day 10 (n = 6). ABX, antibiotics; AOM, azoxymethane; DSS, dextran sodium sulfate; H&E, hematoxylin and eosin; i.p., intraperitoneal; N, neomycin; n.s., not significant; SEM, standard error of the mean; V, vancomycin; V/N, vancomycin and neomycin. Data represent mean ± SEM. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001.
