From: Pseudomonas aeruginosa toxin ExoU induces a PAF-dependent impairment of alveolar fibrin turnover secondary to enhanced activation of coagulation and increased expression of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 in the course of mice pneumosepsis

Figure 7

BALF from PA103-infected mice exhibited increased PAF-AH activity. PAF-AH activity in BALF from mice infected with the ExoU-producing bacteria (n = 13) was significantly higher than in BALF from control mice (n = 12) or from animals infected with the bacterial mutant (n = 13). ** p < 0,01 and *** p < 0,001 when mice infected with PA103 were compared with animals from the other two groups. Data represent mean values ± SE of the results obtained in three different assays.
