Role of TRPV1/TRPA1 in the mouse model. IgE levels in the plasma as measured by ELISA (a), eosinophils (b) and lymphocytes (c) in the BAL as determined by microscopy using standard morphological criteria in the House Dust Mite driven allergic asthma mouse model in TRPV1 or TRPA1 KO mice compared to wild-type. The percentages of the total white cells for each treatment group are: 0, 0, 0, 65, 61 & 78; 9, 6, 6, 21, 15&23, respectively, for eosinophils and lymphocytes. Lung function to inhaled 5-HT is shown in panel (d). Data (n = 8) expressed as mean +/− s.e.m. # = p < 0.05 using students T-test (Mann-Whitney)
