Integral optical density of Calprotectin and TLR4 protein expression in jejunal mucosa.
a, b<p>Means with different superscripts in the same row differ (<i>P</i><0.05).</p>1<p>A group means the control group, B group means the chlortetracycline group, C group means the COS group.</p
Calprotectin and TLR4 protein expression in jejunal mucosa (immunohistochemical staining, ×400).
<p>Piglets challenged by enterotoxigenic <i>Escherichia</i> coli were fed either a control diet (A group, n = 6), or control diet plus chlortetracycline (B group, n = 6) or control diet plus chitosan (C group, n = 6) for 21 days and 6 pigs per treatment were killed to excise the jejunum.</p
Serum IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α levels in weaned piglets.
1<p>A group means the control group, B group means the chlortetracycline group, C group means the COS group.</p
Changes in diarrhea index in piglets.
<p>Piglets challenged by enterotoxigenic <i>Escherichia</i> coli were fed either a control diet (A group, n = 10), or control diet plus chlortetracycline (B group, n = 10) or control diet plus chitosan (C group, n = 10) for 21 days. Diarrhea index (%) was calculated as 100× number of piglets that had diarrhea/total number of piglets.</p
The relative expression of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α mRNA in jejunal mucosa.
<p>Piglets challenged by enterotoxigenic <i>Escherichia</i> coli were fed either a control diet (A group, n = 6), or control diet plus chlortetracycline (B group, n = 6) or control diet plus chitosan (C group, n = 6) for 21 days and 6 pigs per treatment were killed to excise the jejunum.</p
