Figure 1From: Transformation of adrenal medullary chromaffin cells increases asthmatic susceptibility in pups from allergen-sensitized ratsSchematic of asthmatic models in offspring rats from asthmatic dams. On gestational days 0 and 7, the rats were sensitized with an intraperitoneal (IP) injection of OVA. Subsequently, the OVA-sensitized rats were exposed to 30 min of 1% aerosol OVA every day from days 14 to 21. After delivery, the offspring rats were conventionally reared. Then, the offspring (6 to 8 weeks of age) were sensitized on days 0 and 7 with an IP injection of OVA. The sensitized offspring were then exposed every day on days 14 to 21 to 30 min of 1% aerosol OVA.Back to article page
