Figure 1. Time course of total protein in BAL during the initial 24 h following LPAL (BCA assay).

Figure 1

An early increase occurred at 6 h LPAL (20 rats/group, ***P<0.001), and remained elevated at 24 h LPAL (18 rats/group, *P<0.05). Anti-inflammatory treatment with dexamethasone significantly decreased total protein content at 6 h and 24 h LPAL (11–12 rats/time point, #P<0.05). *P measured vs 0 h LPAL, #P measured vs time-matched untreated.
