Figure 7

Flow-volume curves following increasing aerosolized methacholine concentrations. Mean flow-volume curves (mean ± standard deviation) from vehicle-treated saline- (A; Veh/Sal) and ovalbumin- (B; Veh/OVA) challenged ovalbumin-sensitized mice as well as from dexamethasone (1 mg/kg)-treated ovalbumin-sensitized and challenged mice (C; Dex/OVA) at baseline (BL) and following aerosolized saline (Sal) or increasing methacholine concentrations (MCh 31.25-250 mg/ml). Figure 7D represents the mean and standard deviation of the area under the flow-volume curves (AUC) under the varied experimental conditions. (*p < 0.05; ANOVA, n = 5-6 mice/group).
