The Combination of Intestinal Alkaline Phosphatase Treatment with Moderate Physical Activity Alleviates the Severity of Experimental Colitis in Obese Mice via Modulation of Gut Microbiota, Attenuation of Proinflammatory Cytokines, Oxidative Stress Biomarkers and DNA Oxidative Damage in Colonic Mucosa
Round 1
Reviewer 1 Report
The authors have addressed all of my comments and concerns in the revised version.
Only a minor comment: the description of Fig. 8. in the text still does not match the panels of Fig. 8. (page 15 line 21: „HFD+TNBS (Figure 8E)”, lines 12-14 from bottom: „the combination SW and IAP (SW+IAP) without TNBS colitis (Figure 8F) or those with TNBS-induced colitis subjected to SW alone (Figure 8G) or the combination of SW+IAP (Figure 8H) (SW+IAP) without TNBS colitis (Figure 8F)”.
