HO-1/CO Maintains Intestinal Barrier Integrity through NF-κB/MLCK Pathway in Intestinal HO-1^-/- Mice

Figure 7

HO-1^-/- mice promote liver injury by aggravating intestinal mucosal barrier injury. Representative liver sections after hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining (a) (400x, ), Mayer-Sirius red staining (c), and immunohistochemistry staining for α-SMA (e) (200x, ) and serum ALT () (b) levels; quantification of the Sirius red positive areas (d) and the α-SMA positive areas (f) are shown. Representative positive areas are indicated by black arrows. , , and .
