Fig. 1From: Protective effect of curcumin on TNBS-induced intestinal inflammation is mediated through the JAK/STAT pathwayCurcumin protects colonic tissue from TNBS-induced damage. a The weight of rats were recorded daily after TNBS treatment. The data shown were representative. b The colons were weighed after 5-day TNBS challenge. Pretreatment with curcumin significantly decreases the weight of colons. c After curcumin pretreatment, the macroscopic damage was improved. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001Back to article page
