Apoptosis of intestinal cells in rats was increased during the development of liver cirrhosis, and external administration of IGF-1 reduced intestinal cell apoptosis in liver cirrhosis rats: a Control group, b CCL4 group, c CCL4 + IGF-1 group. LPS induced Caco-2 cell apoptosis and IGF-1 inhibited LPS induced Caco-2 cell apoptosis: d Control group, e IGF-1 group, f LPS group, (G) LPS + IGF-1 group
