Fig. 1. NK cells are required for optimal host defense against alcohol-associated pneumoniae.

Fig. 1

A Percentage of pulmonary NK cells and (B) T-cells following NK1.1 depletion. C Representative gating strategy. D K. pneumoniae lung burden at 48 h. post-infection in binge-on-chronic alcohol-treated mice. E Circulating levels of surfactant protein D1 (SPD-1) in binge-on-chronic alcohol-treated mice 48 h. post infection. F Circulating levels of intestinal fatty acid binding protein (iFABP) in binge-on-chronic alcohol-treated mice 48 h. post-infection; p values are indicated in the figure by one‐way ANOVA with Sidak’s multiple comparison. N = 10–12 mice/group derived from 2 independent experiments. N = 4–6 mice/group for the alcohol-fed or pair-fed with NK depletion derived from 1 experiment.
