Effects of GCSs and LABAs on CSE-induced TEER reduction in Calu-3 cells. a. Dose-dependent protective effects of BUD on TEER on Calu-3 cells exposed to 10% CSE for 24 h. b. No effects of SAL or FOR on Calu-3 cells exposed to 10% CSE for 24 h. c. No additive effects of LABAs in combination with GCSs on TEER in Calu-3 cells exposed to 10% CSE for 24 h. All results are representative of at least two independent experiments. Data represent means ± SEM (n = 8–16 per group). *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001 by one-way ANOVA
