  1. Numbers in each column are absolute differences between mean values of percentage stain for saline and allergen exposed animals with sample size requirements for determining allergen induced effects in parenthesis.
  2. α-SMA – α-smooth muscle actin stain
  3. PSR – Picrosirius red stain
  4. Fibro – Fibronectin stain
