Fig. 7

Photomicrograph showing ICAM-1 expression in bronchial epithelial cells. a BEAS-2B control cells. b BEAS-2B cells pretreated with CSE (1%, 4 h). c CSE 1% increases ICAM-1 transcript level, assessed by quantitative RT-PCR and normalized for three housekeeping genes. d CSE (1%) also increases protein expression on epithelial cell culture, quantified by computerized image analysis software. Data is presented as mean ± SEM. Magnification = 400x. (Blue: nuclear stain DAPI; Green: Alexa Fluor 488 showing ICAM-1 stain)
