Figure 5. Bronchiole-associated airway hyperplasia in response to Inescapable stress.

Figure 5

Lung tissue sections were stained with Periodic Acid and Schiff’s Base to determine airway hyperplasia and mucous formation. Results in representative of n=5 mice/experimental condition. Quantitative determination of airway thickness was calculated by mean difference between the thickness of inner endothelium border to that of the mean diameter of the outer endothelium borders of representative small and large airways. Data represents mean (n=5) ± std. error. Asterisk (*) indicates significant (p ≤ 0.05) difference between NS; no stress, NS Sham; sham-treated, ES; escapable and IS; inescapable groups.
