Effects of hypoxia and WHPC on the release of type II epithelial markers. (A) Exposure to hypoxia caused a small increase in surfactant-associated protein (SP)-A levels in BAL. However, pretreatment with WHPC had little effect on this hypoxia-induced pathological change. Shown is a representative Western blot. (B) Densitometric analysis of SP-A immunosignals from four blots. Data are means ± SE; n = 8 for each group. *P < 0.005 versus control; #P < 0.05 versus control. (C) Hypoxia exposure caused a marginal increase in SP-D levels in BAL, which remained unchanged with WHPC pretreatment. Shown is a representative Western blot. (D) Densitometric analysis of SP-D immunosignals from four blots. Data are means ± SE; n = 8 for each group. *P < 0.001 versus control; #P < 0.05 versus control.
