Scale bar: 80 μm (upper panels), 40 μm (lower panels). (C) Histological grading of colitis on day 8. There was a significant difference of scores <t>when</t> <t>DSS/IgY-treated</t> mice vs. the control, DSS/IgY-treated mice vs. DSS/HnAb-treated mice, DSS/HnAb-treated mice vs. the control. (D) The expression of MPO was displayed by immunohistochemistry (IHC). Scale bar: 80 μm (upper panels), 40 μm (lower panels).

A significant difference between the scores of DSS/IgY-treated mice vs. the control, DSS/IgY-treated mice vs. DSS/HnAb-treated mice. No significant difference was found between DSS/HnAb-treated and control mice. (F) The messenger RNA (mRNA) expression levels of IL-1β, IFN-γ, and TNF-α in the colonic tissues of the three groups were detected by RT-PCR. The expression of these three cytokines was increased in the colonic tissues of colitis mice, and HnAb administration resulted in reduced expression level.

Macrophages and CD86+ macrophages are decreased in DSS/HnAb-treated colon. (A) Macrophages were observed in transmission electron microscopic images. Few macrophages could be found in lamina propria in the control, while an increased number was present in dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)/IgY con. DSS/HnAb treatment reduced the number of lamina propria macrophages. (B) Macrophages were identified by the high expression of F4/80 and CD11b.
