Goblet cell (GC) counts of C57BL/6 and ICR mice. (A) GC counts in C57BL/6 (immunocompetent and immunosuppressed) and ICR mice infected with 200 G. seoi metacercariae. Statistically significant differences (P<0.05) compared with immunocompetent C57BL/6 mice were illustrated as an asterisk (*). In immunocompetent C57BL/6 mice, GC counts at day 3 (**) and day 5 (**) were significantly higher (P<0.05) than the figure of uninfected C57BL/6 mice (day 0). (B) Changes of GC counts in the small intestine of immunocompetent and immunosuppressed C57BL/6 mice infected with 200 G. seoi metacercariae. GCs were counted in the middle portion of the jejunum after PAS stain at days 0 (uninfected), 1, 3, 5, and 7 PI.
