Figure 1. Ethanol and burn injury damages intestine morphology and reduces proliferation.
Schematic of the combined ethanol and burn injury model (A). H&E staining of distal ileum sections from four experimental groups (B) and the respective villus height measurements (C). Analysis of proliferation within small intestine crypts using Ki-67 staining (D) and quantification represented as the number of Ki-67+ cells per crypt, (E). n = 3-8 animals per group, ***p < 0.001, **** p < 0.0001 by One-Way ANOVA with Tukey post-hoc compared to sham vehicle.
