Cell position occupied by the foremost migrating BrdU-labeled cell in the crypt-villus axis in mice (a) and rats (b) after 1 h (grey bars) and 24 h (white/black bars in A and B, respectively) since the BrdU injection. Asterisks indicate significant differences with respect to uninfected controls (*p < 0.0001) for each time after BrdU administration. Horizontal bars indicate differences between infected animals at different wpi (a: p < 0.05). c The intestinal epithelial cell migration rate was assessed with a position-based analysis and expressed as the number of cell positions moved per 23 h. Mice, white bars; rats, black bars
