Figure 3.
Relative inhibitory effect of HSA–Trx or Trx on influenza-infected mice. The same injected dose (3.5 nmol/mouse) of HSA–Trx or HSA was administered intravenously at 4 and 6 days after the virus infection. The numbers of (A) total cells and (B) neutrophils, or (C) protein concentration in BALF were determined at 8 days after virus infection. (D) Sections of pulmonary tissue were prepared at 8 days after virus infection, and subjected to histopathological examination (HE staining). Magnifications: ×40 in (D); ×200 in (E). Each value represents the mean ± SE (n = 5).
