Effects of obesity on pulmonary inflammation in monocrotaline (MCT)-induced pulmonary hypertension (PH) in male and female Zucker rats. The quantification and representative photomicrographs of CD68 (macrophages) positive cells in the lung tissues of (a, c) male (n = 6–11) and (b, d) female (n = 8–10) Zucker rats are given. Arrows indicate the CD68 positive cells. NS = normal saline. Data are presented as mean ± SEM (n = 6–11). p < 0.05 values are considered statistically significant. *compared to lean, $compared to normal saline
