Effects of baicalin on cell apoptosis induced by G. parasuis. Before G. parasuis challenge, the piglets in the EP group were injected intraperitoneally with EP, and the piglets in the FM group were injected intramuscularly with FM. Aortic vessels were collected, and the expression of caspase 3 was measured by western blotting. G. parasuis: HPS. 25–100: the piglets were injected intramuscularly with baicalin at 25, 50, or 100 mg/kg BW. ^##p < 0.01 vs control. *p < 0.05 vs the infection group and **p < 0.01 vs the infection group.
