Leptin administration protects intestinal inflammation. (a) Time course of this experiment. Mice underwent DSS treatment, and leptin (1 μg/g) was administered twice daily under fasting conditions to limit intrinsic leptin. (bd) Representative images and colon length are shown (n = 4 per group). Scale bar, 100 μm. (e) Whole colon cells are isolated and the cell number of EPCAM+ epithelial cells and infiltrated CD11b+ Gr-1+ neutrophils in the colon were shown. *P < 0.05, ***P < 0.01. All data are representative of two independent experiments.
