-induced enterocolitis in interleukin-10 knockout mice, including weight loss or stagnation, fecal blood, and diarrhea. Younger mice responded more strongly to the diet intervention, and resulted in increased gut bacterial community richness and bacterial community similarity by diet treatment and some anatomical locations in the gut, even in mice with adverse reactions to gut microbiota and a relatively short time in which they had been able to recruit them. To our knowledge, IL-10-ko mice have not previously been used to investigate the interactions of host, microbiota, and broccoli, broccoli sprouts, or broccoli bioactives in resolving symptoms of CD.
