Selenium-Enriched Yeast Alleviates Oxidative Stress-Induced Intestinal Mucosa Disruption in Weaned Pigs

Figure 3

Effect of SeY on tight junction distribution and localization of ZO-1 in the intestinal epithelium. Localization of ZO-1 and DAPI (DNA) within the jejunum-weaned pigs was assessed by immunofluorescence. ZO-1 protein (red), DAPI stain (blue), and merged ZO-1 protein and DAPI are presented. CON: pigs were fed with basal diet and challenged by sterile saline; SSY: pigs were fed with SeY-containing diet and challenged by sterile saline; DT: pigs were fed with basal diet and challenged by diquat; DSY: pigs were fed with SeY-containing diet and challenged by diquat.
