B(a)p and B(a)p plus LPS induced lung tumorigenesis in WT mice and NLRP3−/− mice. The tumor incidence (a), mean tumor count (b) and tumor size (c) of visible tumors on the surface of the lung from B(a)p-treated and B(a)p plus LPS in WT mice and NLRP3−/− mice. d Lung coefficient of WT mice and NLRP3−/− mice exposed to vehicle, LPS, B(a)p or B(a)p plus LPS. *: vs B(a)p-WT, P < 0.05;#: vs B(a)p-NLRP3−/−, P < 0.05; ∆: vs B(a)p plus LPS-WT, P < 0.05, ♦: vs LPS-WT, P < 0.05. ND: Not Detectable
