a Representative photomicrographs showing mucin expression in colonic sections stained with periodic acid-Schiff (PAS), 400×. Note the pink colored areas of PAS-positive staining indicating mucin production. Group A (control): high glandular and intracellular mucin production; Group B (SA only): moderate glandular mucin production with normal intracellular mucin production; Group C (SA + SSO): abundant glandular mucin production and moderate intracellular mucin production; Group D (SSO only): abundant glandular mucin production with normal intracellular mucin production. b Number of goblet cells per field examined. Superscript a indicates a significant difference (P<0.05) compared with Group A. Superscript b indicates a significant difference (P<0.05) compared with Group B
