[Retracted] Lead Exposure Induced Neural Stem Cells Death via Notch Signaling Pathway and Gut-Brain Axis

Figure 5

Pb exposure induced a low inflammatory response in the gut and gut dysbiosis in mice. (a) Western blot analysis and shading analysis of gut barrier markers, including E-cadherin, Claudin-3, Claudin-1, ZO-2, and ZO-1 in control and high-dose Pb exposure groups. (b) Representative images of hematoxylin and eosin-stained colon sections from control and high dose Pb exposure groups. (c) Representative images of HE stained jejunum sections from control and high dose Pb exposure groups. (d) Shannon diversity index of gut microbiota in the three groups. (e) PCOA analysis of gut microbiota in the three groups. ..
