Liver pathological analysis and VDBP expression analysis in the liver tissues of CLP mice and sham mice. a HE staining analysis of the liver tissues in sham mice and CLP mice on days 1, 3, 5, and 7 after surgery. Black arrow: hemorrhage; Red arrow: edema and hepatic sinusoid structure abnormality; Blue arrow: inflammatory cell infiltration. b VDBP IHC analysis in the liver tissues of sham mice and CLP mice on days 1, 3, 5, and 7 after surgery. ***P < 0.001 compared with sham group. CLP cecal ligation and puncture, HE hematoxylin–eosin, IHC immunohistochemistry, VDBP vitamin D binding protein, IOD integrated optical density
