Figure 2

Expression of intestinal transcription factors (Cdx2, GATA4, HNF1α) and differentiation markers (villin, Muc2) in MLE and IM of EGDA rats and humans. All the tissue sections were stained immunohistochemically with a specific antibody, and then histochemically with Alcian blue. Light blue: Alcian blue staining of acidic mucin; dark blue: hematoxylin staining for nuclei; dark brown: immunohistochemical staining. Size bar equals 20 μm in rat samples, or 40 μm in human samples.
