Examination of BAL cells and BALF. Dots in each box plot represent individual mouse. Vent=ventilated for 2 h as described in the Methods. A) Total single BAL cells in the BALF. Numbers of mice in each group were 7 wild type (WT) sham, 4 WT vent, 4 C3 null sham, and 5 C3 null vent. Statistical significance was against wild type ventilated. B) Thrombin activity. Numbers of mice in each group were 7 wild type (WT) sham, 6 WT vent, 4 C3 null sham, and 6 C3 null vent. C) Gelatinase/collagenase activity. Numbers of mice in each group were 7 wild type (WT) sham, 6 WT vent, 4 C3 null sham, and 5 C3 null vent.
