From: Cigarette smoke-promoted acquisition of bacterial pathogens in the upper respiratory tract leads to enhanced inflammation in mice

Figure 4

Expression of inflammatory mediators in the upper respiratory tract. Mice were exposed to CS or air for 7 months and intranasally inoculated with NTHi. Total RNA was obtained by flushing the upper airways with lysis buffer. The expression of mBD-1 (A), lysozyme (B) and MIP-2 (C) was determined by qRT-PCR. Data are shown as mean ± SEM. n = 4 per group.
