Mefv expression is significantly increased in trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS)-induced (fold change  = 4.10±1.02; p<0.0003) (Figure 1A) and in dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced (fold change = 131.74±44.14; p<0.006) (Figure 1B) colitis mice models as compared to colonic tissues from control mice (arbitrary baseline = 1). This evidence concerns the gene MEFV and colitis.
