TUDCA improved E. coli-induced epithelial barrier impairment and enhanced TGR5 expression in IPEC-J2 cells. A Western blot analysis of ZO-1, OCC, Claudin-1, FXR and TGR5 in IPEC-J2 cells. Tubulin was used as the loading control. B Mean ± SEM of immunoblotting bands of ZO-1, OCC, Claudin-1, FXR and TGR5 (n = 4). C LDH activity in the supernatant of IPEC-J2 cells, expressed as fold of control. *P < 0.05 and ***P < 0.001 versus the control (CON) group, #P < 0.05 and ##P < 0.01versus the E. coli group
