Figure 8. Lung inflammation after intratracheal (IT) IL-6 treatment in acute kidney injury (AKI), intraperitoneal (IP) endotoxin, and IT endotoxin.
(A) Lung CXCL1 (a neutrophil chemokine), and (B) lung MPO activity (a biochemical indicator of lung neutrophils) were measured 4 hours after AKI (indirect lung injury), IP endotoxin (indirect lung injury), and IT endotoxin (direct lung injury) in mice treated with 200 ng of IT IL-6 or IT vehicle (veh) (0.1% BSA) 30 minutes prior to injury (nā=ā5ā7).
