Expression of tryptase and occludin in the ileums of young and old mice. The levels of tryptase (Tpsab1) and occludin (Ocln) expression were determined in the total ileum RNA samples isolated from sham or WP-sensitized young (a) and old (b) male and female mice using RT-qPCR. The values indicate average Cq expression (2−ΔCq) ± standard error for each group. The open bars and hashed bars indicate sham and WP-sensitized groups, respectively. Young male, n = 7; young female, n = 5–6; old male, n = 6; old female, n = 5–6, *p < 0.05, **p < 0.001
