From: Estrogen aggravates inflammation in Pseudomonas aeruginosa pneumonia in cystic fibrosis mice
Estrogen (E2) treatment is correlated with an increase in inflammatory cells. In whole lung homogenate, (A) Total white blood cells (WBCs), ** p <0.01 vs control, n = 5; and (B) neutrophils (PMNs), * p < 0.05 vs control, n = 5. In bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid, (C) Absolute cell counts of total WBCs, lymphocytes (lymph), macrophages (M Φ) and PMNs, ** p < 0.0005, # p <0.005, vs control, n = 5; and (D) PMN differential percentage, * p < 0.05 vs control, n = 5.
