Figure 6.

Evans blue dye assay was used to analyze lymphatic drainage from the colon of control mice (Cont), mice with DSS-induced colitis (DSS), and mice treated with DSS + artemisinin (DSS + Art) 7 days after the commencement of DSS administration. (a) Distribution of Evans blue dye in the distal colon of the three mice groups. (b) Quantification of distal colon lymphatic drainage of Evans blue dye. Data shown are from three independent experiments and are expressed as mean ± SD (n = 10 per group); ^## p < 0.01, DSS versus Cont; ** p < 0.01 DSS + Art versus DSS.
