Cell differentials, cytokine titers, plasma indicators from BALF and histology scores. Following euthanasia, lungs were lavaged with 1 ml of PBS, and cells were counted, and cytospin slides were stained with H&E (n = 5 in each group). No statistically significant differences were found between treatment groups (p > 0.05). Cytokine concentrations were measured from the BALF supernatant using Bio-Plex®. * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, (n = 10 in each group). Results of scoring of PAFS stained histological sections of lungs; no statistical difference was found between groups. Results of scoring of CCSP staining; no statistical difference was found between groups (n = 5 in each group). Total BALF protein was significantly increased in mice treated with (RS)-albuterol compared with (R)- and (S)-albuterol (* p < 0.05) whereas IgG1 in BALF was not affected by either treatment (n = 10 - 18 in each group).
