IL-25 treatment restores Trichuris muris expulsion in mice fed pectin. A Worm burdens 21 days post-infection with 300 T. muris eggs in mice fed an AIN93G control diet, or the control diet supplemented with 5% pectin and administered either PBS or rIL-25 every three days from day 5 post-infection to day 18 post-infection, B T. muris-specific serum antibody levels and C T-cell proportions in mesenteric lymph nodes at day 21 post-infection. n = 5-6 mice per group. Shown are median values (A, C) or means ± S.E.M (B) *p<0.05; **p<0.01 by one-way ANOVA or Kruskal-Wallis test, with either Tukey or Dunn’s post-hoc testing
