Fig. 3

Mean ± SD versican deposition levels (per unit volume of lung tissue; arbitrary units, AU) in the peri-alveolar region of the lung measured in (a) cortisol-treated (n = 6) and saline-treated (n = 5), (b) betamethasone treated (n = 6) and saline-treated (n = 6), and (c) ADX (n = 6) and sham operated (n = 6) sheep lungs. Representative images of versican immunolocalisation (green) in lungs from (d) saline and (e) cortisol-treated sheep, (f) saline and (g) betamethasone-treated sheep, and (h) sham and (i) ADX-operated sheep. *p < 0.05 compared to controls. Scale = 25μm
