Cystatin C immunoassay. Dosage of immunoreactive cystatin C was performed after BLM (or saline solution) administration to wild-type and CatB-deficient mice (see legend to Fig. 1). The concentration of cystatin C was determined using the mouse/rat ELISA Quantikine kit according to the manufacturer’s instructions (R&D Systems Inc, Minneapolis, MN, USA). a Lung homogenates and (b) BALF. Data are expressed as mean values ± SEM (WT NaCl, n = 5; WT BLM, n = 6; CatB-/- NaCl, n = 5; CatB-/- BLM, n = 8)
