IBDs in Stat1/Stat3 double-deficient mice. (a-d) Histologic examination of the colons of (a) control, (b) Stat1-deficient, (c) Stat3 mutant, and (d) Stat1/Stat3 double-mutant mice at 8 weeks. H&E staining is shown. ×20. (e)The colitis scores shown for individual mice at 16 weeks of age were total scores for individual sections as described in Methods. The severity of colitis in Stat1/Stat3 double-mutant mice was significantly but only partially improved compared with Stat3 mutant mice (**P < 0.01). *P < 0.001 versus group of control mice.
