Figure 4.

Colonic histopathological micrographs and p53 expression levels. Mice were randomly divided into 5 groups (n=12); control group, model group (DSS group) and low, medium and high dose (25, 50 and 100 mg/kg/day respectively) taraxasterol groups. (A) Colonic tissues from each group were stained with H&E (magnification, ×100). The red arrows indicate granulation tissue hyperplasia and glandular enlargement. (B) p53 expression levels (brown staining) were measured by immunohistochemistry assay (magnification, ×100). p53, tumor protein p53; DSS, dextran sodium sulphate; H&E, hematoxylin and eosin.
