Effect of inflammation and apoptosis on the structure and function of jejunum. A H & E staining of the jejunum. Scale bars = 200 μm. B Comparison of PAS-stained goblet cells (GC) in the jejunum. Scale bars = 50 μm. C The relative mRNA expression of mucin 2 (MUC2) in the jejunum. D The relative mRNA expression of tight junction proteins in the jejunum. E The relative mRNA expression of apoptosis-related genes. Data are shown as mean ± SEM. *P < 0.05. H, high body weight group; L, low body weight group
