EG stands for experiment group; CG stands for control group; BT stands for “before treatment”. AT stands for “after treatment”. The average number of positive immunoreactivity particles for IgA, IL-1β, or IL-10 in colon mucosa was no significant difference before treatment between two groups. Two months after treatment, the average number of positive particles for IgA and IL-10 in colon mucosa in each group increased significantly (P < 0.01). Moreover, the average number of positive particles for IgA and IL-10 in experiment group was more than that in control group (P < 0.01). However, average number of positive particles of IL-1β was opposite to that of IgA and IL-10 (P < 0.05).
