Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) attenuates cigarette smoke (CS)-induced increases in total protein content (A), total cell count (B) and differential cell count (C) in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF). These indices were measured and served as indications of lung inflammation. Data in each group are mean ± s.e.m. from 6 mice. ^*p < 0.05 vs. the air-exposure group; ^#p < 0.05 vs. the CS-exposure group with vehicle treatment. See the legend of Figure 1 for detailed information on each study group.
