Figure 1. RSV attenuates leukocyte and platelet adhesion in small intestinal microcirculation.

Figure 1

Leukocyte (Figure 1A) and platelet (Figure 1B) adhesion in small intestinal microcirculation (mice n=4-6/group) (mean ± SEM) were measured using intravital microscopy (IVM). Leukocyte and platelet adhesion in Sepsis + Vehicle groups (black bars) were significantly increased vs. Sham + Vehicle (white bars) groups in both, WT and ob/ob strains. Sepsis + Vehicle treated ob/ob mice had significantly higher leukocyte and platelet adhesion than WT mice. Sepsis + RSV (dark gray) groups had significantly attenuated leukocyte and platelet adhesion compared to Sepsis + Vehicle in both WT and ob/ob strains; n=4-6/group * p<0.05 vs. respective Sham + Vehicle group; # p<0.05 vs. respective Sepsis + Vehicle groups’ ‡ p<0.05 vs. WT Sepsis + Vehicle group using Tukey’s post-hoc analysis; error bars: s.e.m.
