PPARG and colitis: Concerning genes with anti-inflammatory effects, significantly increased levels of IL-10 (3.8 ± 2.0 vs. 0.9 ± 0.3, p < 0.05) and PPARγ (0.8 ± 0.0 vs. 0.6 ± 0.0, p < 0.05) mRNA were observed in the colon of rats with colitis treated with the synbiotic compared to untreated animals (Figure 5C,D).
