Figure 4. Less expression of CRP and C3 protein in the BALf of TAT-SNAP-23 treated animals.

Immunoblot for C-reactive protein (CRP), and complement component 3 (C3) was performed on the BALf from 4 animal groups: control, lung injury (LI), lung injury followed by TAT-SNAP-23 (LI + TAT-SNAP-23), or lung injury followed by TAT-Control (LI + TAT-Control). Proteins present in the BALf were separated by SDS-PAGE and the immunoblot analysis performed with anti-CRP (A), or anti-C3 (B).
