Fig. 6From: Protective role of down-regulated microRNA-31 on intestinal barrier dysfunction through inhibition of NF-κB/HIF-1α pathway by binding to HMOX1 in rats with sepsisMiR-31 resulted in histopathological changes in intestine tissues of rats. a histopathological changes of the intestine tissues of the rats could be caused by miR-31 (HE staining 200 ×); (b) pathological injury of small intestine tissue in rats was abated by inhibiting miR-31; *, p < 0.05, vs. the sham group; #, p < 0.05, vs. the sepsis group; NC negative control, HE hematoxylin and eosinBack to article page
