Table 2 Intestinal inflammation score
From: Cx3cr1CreERT2-driven Atg7 deletion in adult mice induces intestinal adhesion
Grade | Criteria for inflammation score |
|---|---|
Inflammation | |
0 | Occasional inflammatory cells in the lamina propria |
1 | Increased number of inflammatory cells in the lamina propria |
2 | Confluence of inflammatory cells extending into the submucosa |
3 | Transmural extension of the inflammatory cells |
Tissue damage | |
0 | No mucosal damage |
1 | Lymphoepithelial lesion |
2 | Surface mucosal erosion or focal ulceration, intestine wall thickening |
3 | Extensive mucosal damage and extension into deeper structure |
