Figure 12From: Repair of tracheal epithelium by basal cells after chlorine-induced injuryMorphometric analysis of Clara cell and ciliated cell markers in tracheal epithelium after chlorine injury. Tracheal sections stained for EdU in conjunction with either CCSP or AcTub were evaluated as described in Materials and Methods. (A) Volume of CCSP staining relative to basement membrane surface area. a, p < 0.05 vs. unexposed; b, p < 0.05 vs. proximal; c, p < 0.05 vs. distal. (B) Volume of AcTub staining relative to basement membrane surface area. a, p < 0.05 vs. unexposed; b, p < 0.05 vs. proximal.Back to article page
