Effect of GQBZD on inflammatory cytokine and function protein expression in the serum and in colon in X-ray radiation. Relative expression of TNF-α (a), IL-6 (b), IL-4 (c), IL-10 (d), PKC in serum (e), PKC in colon (f), HSP in serum (g), HSP in colon (h), ALP in serum (i), and DAO in serum (j) was assessed using the ELISA test and in comparison with the X-ray radiation group. Values are presented as mean ± SEM. Differences were assessed by ANOVA for multiple comparisons and denoted as follows: ; ; ; ns .
