(GPs’ PCLS): Activation of MAP2K-signalling in PDGF-BB-induced bronchoconstriction. A Inhibition of MAP2K by PD98059 (◆) no pre-treatment/100 nM PDGF-BB (n = 4); (◇) pre-treatment with 50 µM PD98059/100 nM PDGF-BB (n = 4). B Inhibition of MAP2K by U0126 (◆) no pre-treatment/100 nM PDGF-BB (n = 4); (○) pre-treatment with 5 µM U0126/100 nM PDGF-BB (n = 4). A/B Statistics was performed by a LMM. p < 0.05 are considered as significant: *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01 and ***p < 0.001
