Fig. 5

Effect of lactate on tight junction proteins of gastric tissues in ethanol-challenged mice. Total RNA in gastric tissues was extracted and qPCR was carried out to examine the expression of genes encoding ZO-1, Occludin, TJP2 and Claudin-1, − 5, − 18. C: Control group; D: disease group; L: Group treated with lactate at a dose of 3 g/ kg. The data were expressed as the means ± SD (n = 6). ** p < 0.01
