The small intestinal villus height and crypt depth with diquat-induced oxidative stress and taurine supplementation in piglets. (A) The effect of taurine on villus height of duodenum; (B) the effect of taurine on crypt depth of duodenum; (C) the effect of taurine on V/C of duodenum; (D) the effect of taurine on villus height of jejunum; (E) the effect of taurine on crypt depth of jejunum; (F) the effect of taurine on V/C of jejunum; (G) the effect of taurine on villus height of ileum; (H) the effect of taurine on crypt depth of ileum; (I) the effect of taurine on V/C of ileum. CON, control group; DIQ, diquat-treated group; LT, piglets supplemented with 0.15% taurine and treated with diquat; MT, piglets supplemented with 0.3% taurine and treated with diquat; HT, piglets supplemented with 0.6% taurine and treated with diquat. V/C, villus height/crypt depth. Results were expressed as mean ± SEM, n = 7. a,b,c,dMean values with dissimilar letters were significantly different (P < 0.05).
