Airway sensitivity (PC₂₀₀), excessive airway narrowing (maximal P_enh), and airway reactivity (DRS) in mice before and after treatment with BCG or mycobacterial secretory proteins

Data are expressed as the mean±standard error.

PC₂₀₀, concentration of methacholine required for a 200% increase in enhanced pause (P_enh) index from baseline; DRS, dose-response slope; BCG, bacille Calmette-Guérin. ^*P<0.05, ^†P<0.01 vs. pretreatment values.
