Figure 7. ELISA analyses of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF).

Figure 7

A. CTGF concentrations in BALF collected on the seventh day after intratracheal administration of bleomycin or saline. The CTGF concentrations in BALF after administration of bleomycin were significantly decreased in S1P3 knockout (KO) mice compared with wild-type (WT) mice (n = 5 in each genotype, *p<0.05). Values are presented as the mean ± SD. B. TGF-β1 concentrations in BALF collected on the seventh day after intratracheal administration of bleomycin or saline. No significant differences between WT and KO mice were observed in the concentration of TGF-β1 in BALF collected after administration of bleomycin (n = 5 in each genotype, p = 0.30). Values are presented as the mean ± SD. C. MCP-1 concentrations in BALF on the seventh day after intratracheal administration of bleomycin or saline. No significant differences between WT and KO mice were observed in the concentration of MCP-1 measured in BALF collected after administration of bleomycin (n = 5 in each genotype, p = 0.23). Values are presented as the mean ± SD.
