Baicalin protects the intestinal mucosal barrier. (a, b) Representative images of AB/PAS staining and goblet cell count in each crypt. Scale bar: 100 μm. (c–e) The mRNA expression and protein levels of MUC2 in colon tissue. (f, g) Representative images of immunohistochemical staining of MUC2 and the quantification of MUC2 by ImageJ. Scale bar: 100 μm. Data are presented as mean ± SEM (n ≥ 5). vs. DSS group; vs. DSS group.
