The Evaluation of cytosolic and serum high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) in 5-FU-induced oral mucositis. (A) Immunohistochemical analysis of cytosolic HMGB1 expression in the oral mucosa. The number of HMGB1-positive cells per field in the lesion have been count. * p < 0.05 vs. 500 mg/kg ANT-rich extract fed with 5-FU injection, # p < 0.001 vs. DI fed with normal saline (NS) injection; (B) serum HMGB1 levels were evaluated by ELISA. Data are expressed as the mean ± S.D. (n = 6). * p < 0.001 vs. 1000 mg/kg ANT-rich extract fed with 5-FU injection; (C) Correlation of the levels of collagen in the buccal mucosa and serum HMGB1.
