Table 2.

Effect of hydroxy-alpha-sanshool on cecum index in mice.

	Total Cecal Mass (g)	Cecal Wall Mass (g)	Cecal Surface Area (cm²)
BG	0.44 ± 0.17	0.14 ± 0.05	0.51 ± 0.01
MG	0.57 ± 0.04 *^a	0.19 ± 0.04 ^a	0.74 ± 0.11 *^a
DG	0.50 ± 0.09 ^a	0.12 ± 0.01 ^b	0.57 ± 0.04 ^b

* indicates significant difference between the means of the MG group and the BG group (p < 0.05), and the different lowercase superscript letters indicate that the means of the MG group and the DG group are statistically significant (p < 0.05). Data were presented as mean ± standard deviation, calculated from ten replicates.
