Figure Lengend Snippet: Effect of Enterococcus faecium on intestinal barrier integrity. ( A ) MUC2 expression in the colon shows reduced staining intensity in the E. faecium group. ( B ) AB–PAS staining of goblet cells reveals atrophied and decreased goblet cell numbers in the E. faecium group. Images captured at 20× magnification; scale bar = 100 µm. ** p < 0.01, ns, not significant.
