Corabion ameliorates disease activity index and colon shortening. (a) Disease activity index (DAI, values within 0–12 as described in Section 2) consisting of the parameters weight loss, stool consistency, and peranal bleeding of the four experimental groups: control (ctrl), colitis, colitis + corabion, and control + corabion. Control and control + corabion groups showed a DAI of 0 throughout the experimental period of seven days. n = 5 per group; ^∗ p < 0.05. (b) Measurement of colon lengths at day 7. n = 5 per group; ^∗∗ p < 0.01. (c) DAI of experimental groups for three days. These mice were sacrificed after three days and used for all further experiments. n = 12 per group; ^∗∗ p < 0.01.
