Protein and mRNA expression of Zbtb7b in UC patients and HCs. A, B WB and relative gray analysis of ZBTB7B protein in colonic tissue of five UC patients and five HCs. C Relative mRNA expression of Zbtb7b in colonic tissue of five UC patients and five HCs detected by qRT-PCR. D, E IHC and relative expression score of ZBTB7B protein in colonic tissue of 10 UC patients and 10 HCs. Data are representative images (scale bar: 100 μm and 20 μm) or expressed as the mean ± SEM of each group. **P < 0.01, ****P < 0.0001. HC healthy control, UC ulcerative colitis
