Histological examination of mouse tissue after Blastocystis infection. a Histology images show the tissues with the highest histological scores within each treatment group. Epithelial lesions/ulcers and loss of crypt architecture were observed for the colon of mice infected with ST7-B (black arrows) and ST7-H (boxed area). Scale bar = 100 μm. b Dot plots show the histological scores for individual mice. Histological scores for ST7-H were significantly higher than that of ST7-B and the control in the colon. *p < 0.05
