Dissected colon tissues were fixed in formalin (Thermo Fisher Scientific) for 48 h. Then the tissues were embedded in paraffin, sliced (5-μm), dewaxed in serial xylene (Thermo Fisher Scientific) and rehydrated through graded ethanol solutions (Pharmco-Aaper). For H&E staining, the slides are stained with hematoxylin and eosin (SigmaAldrich), and examined with a light microscopy (Nikon Instruments). The histological scores were evaluated by blind observers according to the following measures: crypt architecture, degree of inflammatory cell infiltration, muscle thickening, goblet cell depletion and crypt abscess. The pathological score is the sum of each individual score. For immunohistochemistry, antigen retrieval was performed by heating the sections in 0.01 M citrate buffer (pH 6.0) to 95 °C for 10 min. The slides were incubated with primary antibodies against occludin, proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and β-catenin (Cell Signaling Technology) overnight at 4 °C. Horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated secondary antibodies were then applied to the sections, followed by the chromogen 4-diaminobenzidine staining according to the instructions of HRP/DAB (ABC) Detection IHC Kit (Abcam).

The mice were anesthetized by isoflurane inhalation and executed before harvesting the skin samples. The skin samples from the lesion area were fixed in 10% formaldehyde for 24 h and embedded in paraffin for sectioning. The skin sections were stained with hematoxylin and eosin (HE). The thickness of the epidermal, dermal, and various inflammatory cells was analyzed from HE-stained sections and visualized under a magnification of ×200. Five fields from each sample were randomly selected to measure the thickness of epidermis and dermis.
Immunoperoxidase staining was used to detect IL-33 and ST2-positive cells in the sensitized skin. Sections of 4 mm were prepared and stained by rabbit HRP-DAB (ABC detection IHC kit, Abcam). Briefly, endogenous peroxidase activity was blocked by peroxidase blocking solution and protein block was applied to exclude the nonspecific staining. Then, the sections were incubated with biotinylated goat polyclonal antibody, followed by streptavidin-peroxidase at room temperature. The sections were then stained in DAB substrate for 1 min. The tissue sections were mounted with Aquamount (BDH, Gurr, Pole, UK). The positively stained IL-33 (1.25 μg/mL; ab118503; Abcam) and ST2 (0.75 μg/mL; ab25877; Abcam) cells were counted in 10–15 high power fields (HPFs) at ×400 and expressed as cells/HPF, with mean and SE.
