Histological scores measured in the proximal colons of mice inoculated with C. rodentium (CR+) consuming a control diet (CN), or a diet enriched with wheat bran (WB) or resistant starch (RS). a Epithelial cell hyperplasia. b Crypt height. c Epithelial cell injury. d Goblet cell depletion. e Mitotic cell activity. f Total average histological scores. Vertical lines associated with histogram bars represent the standard error of the mean (n = 4). #Different (P ≤ 0.100) from the CN treatment. *Different (P ≤ 0.050) from the CN treatment. Statistical analyses are representative of scores averaged over all time points
