Pathological alterations in the cross-section of the left lobes of lungs of WT mice and NLRP3−/− mice. The pulmonary morphological alterations in the left lobes of lungs of WT mice (a) and NLRP3−/− mice (b) exposed to normal control, vehicle control, LPS, B(a)p or B(a)p plus LPS were evaluated by HE staining. c The number of pathological tumor nests in cross-section of the left lobes of lungs induced by B(a)p or B(a)p plus LPS in WT mice and NLRP3−/− mice. Red arrows show pathological tumor nests in cross-section of the left lobes of lungs. ND: Not Detectable
