Responses of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma translocation protein 1 (Malt1) mediated nuclear factor-κB (Malt1/NF-κB) inflammasome activation and splenic T regulatory cell (Treg) to dietary RS and MI-2 in ducks subjected E. coli injection. a The levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-17, in serum from different groups. b-d The mRNA expression of inflammatory cytokines in bone marrow including TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-17, IL-6, IL-18, Malt1, and NF-κB. eg phosphorylation of p65 and IκBα in NF-κB signalling were analysed by Western blotting. h Representative flow cytometry plots of Treg cells (identified as CD3+CD4+CD25+Foxp3+) and (i) quantification of Treg cells in spleen. Data are expressed as mean and standard deviation.a−cMean values with different letters are significantly different by one-way analysis of variance followed by Tukey’s post hoc test (P < 0.05)
