The mRNA expression of various genes in colonic tissues. DSS was administered to CHOP-null mice (Chop−/−) and WT mice, as described in the legend of Figure 1. Relative mRNA expression of each gene in colonic tissues was monitored and expressed as described in the legend of Figure 2A. A: IL-1β, TNF-α, IL-6. B: Madcam-1, Vcam-1, Icam-1. C: CD11b, CD49d, L-selectin. D: IL-10. E: Capsase-11. F: Ero-1α, Bcl-2. Values are mean ± SEM (n = 4 to 5). ** or ##P < 0.01; * or #P < 0.05; n.s., not significant.
