Mucosal inflammation and gut permeability in CD40 colitis. (A) Elevated blood levels of orally dosed 800CW were observed in anti-CD40 treated animals. A reduction in permeability and blood levels was observed in anti-CD40 + anti-p40 treated animals and were similar to naive animals. For anti-CD40, n = 9; for anti-CD40 + anti-p40, n = 10; for naive, n = 5. (B) Visible signs of erosions for analysis were not observed in anti-CD40 treated animals. Rather, Iba-1 IHC was performed to quantify macrophage infiltration. Iba-1 IHC in brown; mucin staining in light blue. (C) Iba-1 image analysis suggests statistically significant higher staining in anti-CD40 animals vs anti-CD40 + anti-p40 animals. For anti-CD40, n = 10; for anti-CD40 + anti-p40, n = 8; for naive, n = 5. All values presented are the mean ± S.D. One-way ANOVA was used to analyze variation; ***P < 0.001.
