Alteration of intestinal characteristics in the gastric mucosa of HFD-fed mice. Gastric sections stained for PAS-Alcian blue, Muc2, PLA2, and H+K+ ATPase (a), and Cdx2 (d) in mice fed CD or HFD for 20 weeks. Gene expression of mucins (b), and Cdx2 and Sox2 (e) in the gastric mucosa of mice fed CD or HFD at 1 to 12 weeks after feeding. We utilized 5–10 mice in each analysis, and representative data are shown. c The gastric pH in the gastric lumen was measured according to the description provided in the Methods. Values represent the means ± SD of 5 mice. The results were analyzed by the Kruskal-Wallis test. * p < 0.05
