From: Nitric oxide exerts protective effects against bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis in mice
The n/i/eNOS−/−mice were associated with an increase in the protein levels of proinflammatory cytokines, CC chemokine ligand 2 (CCL-2), and the tissue growth factor-β1 (TGF-β 1) in a pulmonary fibrosis model at two weeks after BLM-treatment in BALF (n = 5). (A) IL-6 protein. (B) IL-1β protein. (C) TNF-α protein. (D) IFN-γ protein. (E) CCL-2 protein. (F) Active form of TGF-β1. *P < 0.05 vs. BLM-treated WT mice.
