Figure 3. Crypt depth and Villus height dimensions.
Wild type (WT) and EGFR-null mice (VC(+)) underwent either 50% proximal small bowel resection (SBR) or sham operation (transection and reanastomosis of the bowel alone). On post operative day 7, the ileum was harvested and crypt depth and villus height were measured from H&E-stained sections. N=6–11 per group, * = p < . 05.
