Immunization with pMG-Ag85B inhibited inflammatory cell infiltration in the lung. A. Timing of the sensitization, immunization and challenge (NS = normal saline). B. Lung tissue was taken 24 hours after the last OVA challenge. H&E staining of lung sections from the normal (upper left), OVA (upper right), empty pMG (lower left) and pMG-Ag85B (lower right) groups. n = 6 mice per group. C, D. BAL fluid was collected 24 hours after the last OVA challenge. The total number of cells (C) and number of eosinophils (D) were counted. Values are means ± SD for seven animals. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, for the pMG-Ag85B group versus the OVA-sensitized control group; +P < 0.05, ++P < 0.01, for the pMG-Ag85B group versus the pMG group (unpaired two-sided Student's t-test).
