QCHS inhibited the expression of surface molecules and cytokines of DCs in TNBS-induced experimental colitis mice. a The frequency of MHC-II+CD86+ DCs in the MLN was measured by flow cytometry. QCHS (3, 6 and 12 g/kg) and SASP downregulated the percentage of mature DCs. b IL-12 was analyzed by ELISA. The concentration of IL-12 was reduced in a QCHS dose-dependent pattern. 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
