Expression profiles of host defense genes when C. elegans were conditioned with lactobacilli and then LDEVs. a RNAs of five host defense genes (asp10, clec-60, cpr-1, cpr-5, and lys-5) were significantly (p < 0.01) up-regulated when C. elegans fer-15;fem-1 were conditioned with L. acidophilus NCFM (See reference [31]). Data are derived from qPCR with fold change in gene expression listed below each gene. b RNAs of clec-60, cpr-1 and lys-5 were significantly (**, p < 0.01) up-regulated when C. elegans fer-15;fem-1 were conditioned with L. plantarum WCFS1. c Significant (**, p < 0.01) up-regulation of clec-60 and cpr-1 was associated with LDEV conditioned C. elegans fer-15;fem-1
