Figure 5. Airway goblet cell numbers and mucin gene expression in this chronic asthma model 24 hours after the ninth OVA or PBS challenge.

Figure 5

(A and B) Lung mRNA levels of genes encoding mucin 5AC and mucin 5B. (C) Numbers of goblet cells along the airway epithelium. (D) Levels of lung hydroxyproline. White bars, PBS-treated group; black bars, OVA-sensitized/challenged group. ***P < 0.001 versus corresponding PBS controls; †P < 0.05, ††P < 0.01, or †††P < 0.001 versus group indicated. n = 6 per group (A–C); n = 8 per group (D).
