Acrolein exposure suppresses mucus/goblet cell hyperplasia in response to allergen challenge. Mucus/goblet cell hyperplasia was evaluated 48 hrs after the last OVA challenge by PAS staining ( A ) which was scored and quantified ( B ). Lung tissue mRNA gene expression of Muc5ac and Gob5 was analyzed by qRT-PCR ( C ). Results are expressed as mean ± SEM (n = 4/group) (*, p < 0.05).
