Fig. 2From: Involvements of p38 MAPK and oxidative stress in the ozone-induced enhancement of AHR and pulmonary inflammation in an allergic asthma modelEffects of O3 exposure on the allergic asthma model. a The lung function was assessed by the AHR in the left panels with the dose-response curves of Penh (top) and the log concentrations of methacholine required to increase Penh by 100% from baseline (LogPC100Penh) (bottom), the airway resistance (top right) and the lung compliance (bottom right). b The total and differentiated cell counts in the BALF. c The representative images of H&E stained lung sections (top) and histological inflammation scores (bottom) were shown. d cytokines (IL-6, IL-13 and IFN-γ) and HA concentration in the BALF. e mRNAs expression of TNF-α, IL-5, IL-17 and CXCL-1 in the lungs. Data are shown as mean ± SEM, n = 7 in each group. Synergistic effect of O3 and OVA, ▽:p < 0.05Back to article page
