Suppression of Dextran Sulfate Sodium-Induced Colitis in Mice by Radon Inhalation

Figure 2

Effects of radon inhalation on mucosal damage after colitis induction. (a) Control, (b) radon inhalation only, (c) sham inhalation with DSS administration, and (d) radon inhalation with DSS administration. All samples were stained with hematoxylin and eosin (HE). Scale bar is 100 μm (×100). (e) Lower histological damage score of mucosa in mice treated with radon inhalation than in mice treated with sham inhalation. Each value is the mean ± SEM. The number of mice for each experiment and significance are the same as in Figure 1.
