Mild Moxibustion Decreases the Expression of Prokineticin 2 and Prokineticin Receptor 2 in the Colon and Spinal Cord of Rats with Irritable Bowel Syndrome

<table>PKR2 expression in the colon of chronic visceral hypersensitivity model rats (immunohistochemical detection). Yellow stains denote PKR2-positive expression as shown by the arrows. PKR2 was mainly expressed in the mucosal epithelium, the proximal glands of the mucosal epithelium, the interstitium, and the muscle layer of the colon. (A2) normal group, (B2) model group, and (C2) mild moxibustion group. Scale bar: 20 <i>μ</i>m.</table>
