Effects of QCHS on the differentiation of Th17 cells and Tregs in mice with TNBS-induced colitis. After 7 days of administration. a The frequencies of Th17 and Tregs in the MLN were analyzed by flow cytometry. b QCHS (3, 6 and 12 g/kg) and SASP, as well as QCHS-treated DCs, reduced the ratio of Th17/Treg in TNBS-induced colitis. The data are expressed as mean ± SD, n = 6 per group. *P < 0.05 indicates a significant difference vs the control group. #P < 0.05 indicates a significant difference vs the TNBS group
