Bladder and colon histology. (A) Representative images of cross sections of the bladder (upper panels) and colon (lower panels) from mice in the control (left) and the constipation (right) groups. Masson’s trichrome staining: Collagen is represented by the blue staining. Bars, 200 µm. (B) The area measurement of total colon tissue section and the four layers (mucosa, muscularis mucosa, submucosa and muscularis externa) of the colonic wall from each group of mice (left). The proportional area of each layer relative to the entire tissue section and the mucus vesicles relative to the mucosa (right). Mean ± SE. *p < 0.05, †p < 0.0005 vs. the control group. Figures were prepared using Adobe Photoshop CS6 and GraphPad Prism 8.4.3 (https://www.graphpad.com/scientific-software/prism/).
