Effect of Herb-Partitioned Moxibustion on Autophagy and Immune-Associated Gene Expression Profiles in a Rat Model of Crohn’s Disease

Figure 6

The expression of differential expression mRNA in colon tissues of rats. (a) The expression of Nod2 mRNA in rat colon tissues. (b) The expression of Irgm mRNA in rat colon tissues. (c) The expression of IL-12bmRNA in rat colon tissues. (d) The expression of IL-22 mRNA in rat colon tissues. N: normal group; M: CD model group; MM: CD model with herb-partitioned moxibustion group; NM: normal with herb-partitioned moxibustion group; Med: CD model with mesalazine group; NS: CD model with normal saline group. ^△P < 0.01 versus N group; ^▲P < 0.05 versus M group; < 0.01 versus M group; ^#P < 0.05 versus Med group. P values between different groups were calculated from one-way ANOVA and LSD test.
