MFG-E8-derived short peptide 6 (MSP68) prevents bacterial translocation to mesenteric lymph nodes (MLN) after cecal ligation and puncture (CLP). MLN were aseptically collected at 20 h after CLP from sham, vehicle and MSP68-treated mice and homogenized in sterile PBS. The serially diluted MLN suspensions were plated, and bacterial colony forming units (cfu) were calculated. Data are expressed as mean ± standard error of the mean (n = 4–6/group) and compared by Student’s t test; # P <0.05 versus vehicle. ND not detectable
