Immunohistochemistry of colonic sections was performed as described previously [23 (link)]. After microwave antigen retrieval, the colonic slides were incubated overnight with primary antibodies of Ki-67 (Abcam, ab21700, Cambridge, UK) and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) (Abcam, ab29, Cambridge, UK) at 4 °C. For immunofluorescence staining, colonic slides were incubated overnight with primary antibodies of β-catenin (Abcam, ab32572, Cambridge, UK) and Muc-2 (Abcam, ab272692, Cambridge, UK) at 4 °C.
