Differential protein expression during colonic adaptation in ultra-short bowel rats

Figure 1 Change in colonic mucosal thickness and height of colon plica in ultra-short bowel syndrome, sham-operation, and control rats. A: Normal group, 25 ×; B: Normal group, 50 ×; C: Sham group, 25 ×; D: Ultra-short bowel syndrome group, (USBS) 25 ×; E: USBS group, 50 ×.

Figure 2 Image of 2-DE gels for proteins extracted from the colon mucosa of ultra-short bowel syndrome, sham-operation, and control rats. Representative results from three independent experiments are shown. A: Normal group; B: Sham group; C: Ultra-short bowel syndrome group.
