The effects of GB1a on the activation of the Nrf2 signaling pathway in UC mice. (A) GB1a administration reduced the levels of oxidants (MDA) and increased the levels of antioxidants (GSH, SOD) in the serum of UC mice. (B) GB1a treatment upregulated the expression of antioxidant genes Nrf2, HO-1, and MarfK. (C) Immunofluorescence analysis of Nrf2 (red) in the colon of mice. DAPI was used for nuclear staining (blue). (D) GB1a administration increased the expression of Nrf2 and HO-1 proteins and promoted Nrf2 translocation to the nucleus. (E) Representative images of immunohistochemical staining of Nrf2 and HO-1 in mice colon sections. Data are presented as means ± SD (n = 7/group). *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, and ***p < 0.001 vs. the DSS-incubated group.
