Effects of unloaded FNPs, resveratrol, RL-FNPs, and dexamethasone on colonic gene expression, in TNBS rat colitis, of the mucins (A) MUC-2 and (B) MUC-3, as well as of (C) TFF-3 and (D) villin, analyzed by real-time PCR.

Notes: Data are expressed as mean ± SEM (n=10). Groups with a different letter (a–c) differ statistically (P<0.05).

Abbreviations: Dex, dexamethasone; FNP, silk fibroin nanoparticle; MUC, mucin; PCR, polymerase chain reaction; Resv, resveratrol; RL-FNP, resveratrol-loaded silk fibroin nanoparticle; SEM, standard error of the mean; TFF, trefoil factor; TNBS, trinitrobenzene sulphonic acid.
