Cellulose Supplementation Early in Life Ameliorates Colitis in Adult Mice
Figure 3
Transected proximal colons from LC (left) and HC (right) mice at P90.
Note the significantly (p<0.001; 7–8 measurements, average length 1180 µm vs. 393 µm) elongated crypts in HC compared LC. The surface area increase secondary to this morhological change was calculated to be 20% in HC compared to LC (magnification ×40).
