Increased colonic myenteric neuronal density and number of nNOS expressing cells during PN treatment is abrogated by supplementation of PN with BBS. (A) Immunostaining of the myenteric plexus within the colon of Chow, PN and PN+BBS treated animals with Hu (upper panel), nNOS (middle panel) and Hu/nNOS (lower panel). Scale bar equals 200 μm. (B) Bar graphs showing the neuronal density (mm2), number of nNOS expressing cells (mm2) and the proportion of nNOS cells within the Hu+ population of neurons.
