Resolution of lung inflammation is delayed following chronic cigarette smoke exposure. BALB/c mice were exposed to room air (open bars) or cigarette smoke (solid bars) for (A) 4 days ± 3 days of smoking cessation, (B) 8 weeks ± 20 days of smoking cessation or for (C) 24 weeks ± 60 and 120 days of smoking cessation. Data show total cell number, mononuclear cells and neutrophils in the BAL. Bars represent means ± SEM; n = 5 per group. *p < 0.05.
