Effects of GD on the morphological structure of duodenum in the mice.
| Groups | VH | CD | V/C | Mucosal injury |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| LPS | 151.34 ± 15.26A | 74.75 ± 7.42A | 2.32 ± 0.52A | 4.32 ± 0.42A |
| Low | 175.25 ± 19.07A | 62.88 ± 12.30AB | 2.56 ± 0.70A | 3.97 ± 0.34A |
| medium | 213.00 ± 29.91B | 60.38 ± 6.22AB | 3.46 ± 1.46AB | 2.65 ± 0.24B |
| High | 246.5 ± 16.62B | 54.12 ± 3.25B | 4.36 ± 0.15BC | 1.23 ± 0.28C |
| Control | 272.53 ± 24.65B | 53.75 ± 2.84B | 5.47 ± 0.78C | 0.54 ± 0.02D |
The data are expressed as the mean ± SD (n = 10 per treatment group). VH (villus height), CD (crypt depth), and V/C (villus height/crypt depth). Grade of intestinal mucosal injury. Grade 0, normal mucosa; Grade 5, the most extensive denudation of mucosa. The difference between groups was significantly different in different capitals.
