Effect of PRRSV on the expression of tight junction proteins. A Relative mRNA expression determined by relative RT-qPCR assays. B Representative histological sections of the jejunum. Tight junction protein expression was detected in the jejunum using IHC analysis. Microscopy magnification: 200 × . a, d ZO-1 expression, b, e Occludin expression, c, f Claudin 1 expression in the jejunum of control and PRRSV-infected pigs. C Average optical density of tight junction protein expression. All data are expressed as the mean ± SEM. * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.00.
