Morphologic Damage of Rat Alveolar Epithelial Type II Cells Induced by Bile Acids Could Be Ameliorated by Farnesoid X Receptor Inhibitor Z-Guggulsterone In Vitro

<div>Representative micrographs of FXR immunostaining of CDCA-treated primary cultured AECIIs. Rabbit polyclonal anti-FXR antibody demonstrated the presence of FXR in nuclei of AECIIs. And the fluorescence intensity on AECIIs treated with GS was much lower than that without GS. Magnification bar: 50 <i>μ</i>m.</div>
