EA inhibited TRPV1/CGRP, ERK, and TLR4 signaling pathways in DSS-induced colitis rats. Representative Western blot analysis and quantification of densitometries of Western blot band for the expression of TRPV1 and CGRP (a, b), MEK and p-MEK (c, d), CREB and p-CREB (e, f), TLR4, IRF3, and p-IRF3 (g, h), and P-65 and p-P65 (i, j) in L6 DRG of DSS-induced colitis rats. β-Actin was used as a loading control. vs. control group, ## vs. sham-EA group.
