| Figure 2: Cell counts and differentials in C57BL/6 and Mindin -/- mice after saline or FAP After physiologic measurements, bronchoalveolar lavage was performed for total cell count and differentials for C57BL/6 wild type (closed box) and Mindin -/- (open box) after either saline or FAP. (A) Total cell count, (B) neutrophils, and (C) eosinophils are all elevated in wild type mice after FAP exposure when compared to saline or mindin-/- mice exposed to FAP. (*P<0.05 between C57BL/6 saline and FAP, Mindin-/- saline and FAP and C57BL/6 and Mindin-/- FAP exposed mice, N=6, representative of two experiments). |
