Figure Lengend Snippet: DSS‐induced acute UC significantly reduced SQOR levels. (A) C57BL/6 mice were treated with 3% DSS or water for 7 days, representative immunohistochemical (IHC) staining of SQOR in the colon, red arrows indicated intestinal epithelial cells (scale bar: 200 µm; enlarged scale bar: 100 µm; n = 3). (B, C) Mice were treated with 3% DSS for 7 days, and then colon was prepared to detect SQOR expression using western blot ( n = 4). (D, E) Mice were treated with 3% DSS for 3, 5, and 7 days, representative photograph of colon tissue during DSS‐induced acute UC in colon tissue of WT mice, and the colon length was recorded at days 0, 3, 5, 7 ( n = 3). (F, G) Relative SQOR protein expression in colonic tissues from controls or DSS‐treated WT mice during days 0, 3, 5, 7 using western blot ( n = 3). The data were represented as mean ± SD. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001. ns, no significant difference.
