DSS-induced UC model in rats. a Rats had bloody stools after 5% DSS was administered for 14 days. b, c The colon and rectum lengths of the control and UC groups were compared, and changes after Evans blue staining were observed. d Comparison of HE staining between the control and UC groups (n = 5, scale bars = 50 μm). e Quantitative analysis of the colon and rectum length showed that the UC group was significantly shorter than the control group. Data are shown as the means ± SD (n = 5, ***p < 0.001). f Comparison of body weight changes between the control and UC group rats. Data are shown as the means ± SD (n = 5, **p < 0.01). g DAI scores were obtained by monitoring the body weight changes, stool consistency and bloody stool extent from the rats in the control and UC groups. Data are shown as the means ± SD (n = 5, **p < 0.01)
