(A) Summary of the average effect of dexamethasone on measured parameters reflecting changes within the alveolar space. Each bar represents the average % decrease 6 h after LPAL in dexamethasone treated rats compared with vehicle treated rats (3–11 rats/group, *P<0.05). B–C. Average effects of dexamethasone treatment on CXCL1, CXCL2, (mRNA, protein), CXCR1 and CXCR2 (mRNA) expression in the left bronchus 6 h after LPAL. Dexamethasone has no significant effects on any of the variables measured in the bronchus (3–4 rats/group).
