From: Ghrelin therapy improves lung and cardiovascular function in experimental emphysema
Elastic fibre content in alveolar septa (a) and representative photomicrographs of lung parenchyma stained with Weigert's resorcin fuchsin method with oxidation (elastic fibres) (b). Arrows: Elastic fibres (stained black). C: control; ELA: elastase induced emphysema; Sal: i.p. injection of saline; Ghr: i.p. injection of ghrelin. Boxes show the interquartile range (25th-75th percentile), whiskers encompass the range (minimum–maximum), and horizontal lines represent the median in 10 animals/group. * vs. C-Sal. # vs. ELA-Sal
