AE alleviates mice colitis induced by DSS. A: Changes in body weights of mice were monitored following treatment with different doses of AE in a mouse model of colitis induced by DSS.B: Intestinal inflammation marker LCN2 in feces. Levels of LCN2 in fecal samples collected from mice were measured as a marker of intestinal inflammation.C: H&E staining of colon tissue sections. Histological evaluation of colon tissue slices stained with H&E to assess tissue damage and inflammation. Representative images are shown. Data are shown as mean ± SD, ***P < 0.001: compared with control group; ##P < 0.01 and ###P < 0.001: compared with DSS group. Representative results from one out of three independent experiments.
