The ultrastructure inspection of the distal colon tissues by electron microscopy. Compared with the control group (a), the model group (b) has shown shortened loose microvilli with uneven length (M), large intraepithelial vacuoles (V), and unclear dissolved mucosal granules in the cytoplasm. After acupuncture (c) or moxibustion (d) treatment, the microvilli are in good order (magnification, 10000x, and scale bar = 2 μm).
