Differential mRNA expression of junction proteins in the colons of wild type and Mmp7 -/- mice treated with 3% DSS. Colitis was induced with 3% DSS in drinking water in both C57BL/6 and Mmp7 -/- mice for 7 days as shown in Figure 4 . RT-qPCR was performed to determine mRNA levels of Ctnnb1 (A), Cdh1 (B), Cldn1 (C), Cldn7 (D), Cldn13 (E), Cldn15 (F), Ocln (G), Tjp1 (H), Cldn8 (I), Muc2 (J), Muc3 (K), and Muc4 (L). n=4 or 5. *p<0.05 vs wild type control. **p<0.05 vs wild type DSS.
