PNU decreased the phagocytosis of macrophages in colon tissues of mice and RAW264.7 cells. The phagocytic function of macrophages was detected by immunofluorescence and flow cytometry. A Immunostaining assay was performed to detect E-coli phagocytosis of macrophages in RAW264.7 cells. Scale bar, 100 μm. B Immunofluorescence staining quantitative relative area. C Phagocytosis was analyzed by flow cytometry. D The rate of phagocytosis was calculated using the median fluorescence intensity (MFI). Data are expressed as the mean ± SD; *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001, ****P < 0.0001
