Furthermore, C. rodentium colonization of colons in S100A4−/− mice was significantly less than those in WT mice after infection on day 7 (P < 0.05) (Fig. with C. rodentium (n = 4), *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01. In addition, the levels of anti-inflammatory cytokines IL-9 and IL-10 in S100A4−/− mice were also decreased compared...
