Fungi lose their effects under specific anti-Enterobacteriaceae treatment (colistin). a Experimental design for the administration of vancomycin or colistin, yeasts (C. albicans and S. boulardii), and dextran sulfate sodium (DSS). b Weight of DSS-exposed mice treated with C. albicans + vancomycin, S. boulardii + vancomycin, and vancomycin alone (n = 12). c Length of the colons of mice treated with C. albicans + vancomycin (CA + V), S. boulardii + vancomycin (SB + V), and vancomycin alone (V) (n = 6). d Secreted lipocalin (pg/mg of feces) in the feces of mice treated with C. albicans + vancomycin, S. boulardii + vancomycin, and vancomycin alone (n = 6). e Histological scores of mice treated with C. albicans + vancomycin (CA + V), S. boulardii + vancomycin (SB + V), and vancomycin (V) alone on day 12 after DSS (n = 6). f Weight of DSS-exposed mice treated with C. albicans + colistin (CA + C), S. boulardii + colistin (SB + C), and colistin alone. g Length of the colons of mice treated with C. albicans + colistin (CA + C) (n = 11), S. boulardii + colistin (SB + C) (n = 8), and colistin alone (C) (n = 7). h Secreted lipocalin (pg/mg of feces) in the feces of mice treated with C. albicans + colistin (n = 12), S. boulardii + colistin (n = 8), and colistin alone (n = 7). i Histological scores of mice treated with C. albicans + colistin (n = 9), S. boulardii + colistin (n = 9), and colistin alone (n = 7) on day 12 after DSS
