Figure 4

RUS inhibits intestinal epithelial cell apoptosis but not pyroptosis. (a–e) The expression of NLRP3, caspase1, caspase11, and GSDMD in colon tissues as determined by WB. (f–i) Protein levels of Bcl-2, Bax, and C-caspase-3 in colon tissues. The experiments were repeated 3 times (), and the most typical result is shown. Data are presented as the (, compared with the WT group; #, compared with the WT group).
