Moreover, fecal samples from vehicle-treated acute colitis animals displayed a significantly lower elastase-like activity measured with Suc-Ala-Ala-Ala-AMC (Bonferroni-corrected unpaired t-test p-value = 0.014, Figure 7E) and cathepsin G activity (Mann-Whitney U two-sided p-value = 0.032, Figure 7G) compared to vehicle-treated controls. The gene discussed is CTSG; the disease is colitis.
