Figure Lengend Snippet: Stc1 deficiency alleviates DSS‐induced acute murine colitis. A) Body weight loss of WT, Stc1 INT‐KO , WT+DSS, and Stc1 INT‐KO +DSS mice. WT, n = 6; Stc1 INT‐KO , n = 7; WT+DSS, n = 8; Stc1 INT‐KO +DSS, n = 8. (B, C) Mice colon length and representative images of colons. WT, n = 6; Stc1 INT‐KO , n = 7; WT+DSS, n = 8; Stc1 INT‐KO +DSS, n = 8. D) DAI scores were used in the evaluation of colitis severity. WT, n = 6; Stc1 INT‐KO , n = 7; WT+DSS, n = 8; Stc1 INT‐KO +DSS, n = 8. (E, F) Histological scores and representative colonic histopathological images. WT, n = 6; Stc1 INT‐KO , n = 7; WT+DSS, n = 8; Stc1 INT‐KO +DSS, n = 8. Scale bars: 200 µm. (G, H) Representative colonoscopy images and endoscopic colitis scores were used to evaluate colitis severity observed under murine colonoscopy. WT, n = 3; Stc1 INT‐KO , n = 3; WT+DSS, n = 6; Stc1 INT‐KO +DSS, n = 6. I) TEM detected the deformation of mitochondria (marked by red arrows) in mice colonic epithelial cells. Scale bars: 1 µm. (J, K) Representative IF images of γ‐H2AX‐ J) and PAR‐stained K) mice colon sections. Scale bars: 100 µm. (L) The expression level of pro‐inflammatory cytokine mRNA in mice colonic tissues was detected via qPCR. WT, n = 5; Stc1 INT‐KO , n = 5; WT+DSS, n = 5; Stc1 INT‐KO +DSS, n = 5. M,N) The expression level of IL‐6 and TNF‐α protein in mice serum was detected via multiELISA. WT, n = 4; Stc1 INT‐KO , n = 4; WT+DSS, n = 4; Stc1 INT‐KO +DSS, n = 4. Data were expressed as mean ± SEM. * p <0.05, ** p <0.01, *** p <0.001.
