Histological score | 5.7 ± 1.81-150 | 5.0 ± 0.61-150 | 1.7 ± 0.8 | 0.1 ± 0.1 |
MPO activity (ng/mg of protein) | 0.41 ± 0.04 | 1.06 ± 0.221-150 | 0.36 ± 0.06 | 0.14 ± 0.02 |
Cross-sectional area (mm2) | 0.96 ± 0.05 | 1.72 ± 0.121-150 | 0.75 ± 0.06 | 0.92 ± 0.07 |
Values are mean ± S.E. Histological scores and MPO activity are obtained from six animals in each group. The numbers of muscle strips used to obtain the cross-sectional area are as follows: HLA-B27 rats (n = 20 jejunal and n = 18 colonic strips) and Fisher 344 rats (n = 18 jejunal andn = 18 colonic strips).
↵1-150 Significant difference (P < .05) compared to the same respective value in control Fisher 344 rats.
