Immunoreactive levels of ASBT in the normal, inflamed, and MP-treated rabbit ileum. Representative data of 4 experiments each with different animals are shown. Top: Western blot analysis demonstrated that the amounts of immunoreactive ASBT protein were increased in normal ileum treated with MP. Western blot analysis also demonstrated that the MP treatment reversed the amounts of immunoreactive ASBT protein nearly restored back to normal levels. Bottom: densitometry demonstrated the relative quantitation of ASBT, which confirmed both Western blot findings.
