C57BL/6 mice were treated with 3% DSS, DSS + HU 308 (1 mg/kg, i.p.) or DSS + HU 308 (1 mg/kg, i.p.) + 3-MA (10 mg/kg, i.p.) daily for 8 days. The control mice were given tap water. 3-MA significantly inhibited the beneficial effect of HU 308 on body weight loss (A), bloody stool score (B), colon length (C) and colon inflammation (D-E). n = 10 per group. **P<0.01 vs. the control group; #P<0.05 vs. the DSS group, ##P<0.01 vs. the DSS group; &P<0.05 vs. the DSS+HU 308 group, &&P<0.01 vs. the DSS+HU 308 group. (F) 3-MA also attenuated the inhibitory effect of HU 308 on Casp-1 p20/Casp-1 p45 ratio and proIL-1β in colon. n = 6 per group. **P<0.01 vs. vehicle; #P<0.05 vs. HU 308 group.
