Note that CL, at doses of 1, 10 and 100 mg/kg caused a significant (P < 0.001) reduction in MiUS at different time points when compared to IBD control. *Significance difference between IBD and from Non IBD control; # Significance difference between CL-treated and IBD control (n = 6)Back to article page
