Figure 5 Intragastric cold water stress increased oxytocin receptor expression in colon.
A: Representative Western blots. B: Densitometry analysis. C: Positive control of immunoreactivity. Oxytocin (OT) receptor antigen is expressed in the smooth muscle (arrows) of uterus. D: OT receptor immunoreactivity is expressed in myenteric plexus (arrows) of colon. aP < 0.05 vs control group (n = 6). OTR: Oxytocin receptors.
