Alleviation of colonic inflammation by oral administration of UDCA in LBW piglets (n = 10). A Schematic outline of the experimental design. B Body weight before and 8 days after UDCA administration. C Representative H&E staining (×50 magnification), PAS staining (×50 and ×100 magnification), histology score of the colonic sections, and the number of goblet cells of LBW piglets receiving UDCA. D The mRNA expression levels of genes related to inflammation, barrier function, and bile acid receptors in the colon of LBW piglets receiving UDCA. Data are presented as means ± SEM. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01
