The expression of COX-2 protein in the colonic mucosa^{1, 2}. (a) The total expression of COX-2 protein in the colonic mucosa. (b) The expression of COX-2 protein in proximal colonic mucosa. (c) The expression of COX-2 protein in middle colonic mucosa. (d) The expression of COX-2 protein in distal colonic mucosa. ¹Data are expressed as mean±SEM (𝑛= 3~4). ²The image of western blot was representative. ^abLetters at the top of each bar sharing the different superscripts are significantly different (𝑃<0.05).
