Table 1. Bronchoalveolar Lavage Differential Cell Counts.

Cells×10−3	Total	Eosinophils	Neutrophils	Lymphocytes	Monocytes
Saline	95.0±50.8	0.5±0.2	0.8±0.1	10.0±2.0	83.7±18.8
OVA	385.0±29.4***	4.1±1.5***	6.1±2.7***	74.6±22.2***	300.2±37.6***

Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid was collected from saline- and ovalbumin (OVA)-challenged mice (n = 6/group) and assessed for total cellularity. Differential cell counts were made on cytospin preparations from each BAL fluid sample based on counts of 300 cells. Results are expressed as mean ± SEM. Statistical analysis of log-transformed data was conducted using unpaired t-tests.
