Nuclear overexpression of Trx1 mitigates the exaggerated TGF β1 expression induced by chronic alcohol ingestion following bleomycin‐induced lung injury in NLS‐Tg mice as compared to littermates. 3‐month‐old WT or NLS‐Tg were treated ± alcohol (20% v/v in water for 8 weeks) then treated with 2 units/kg bleomycin intratracheally. Lungs and BAL fluid were harvested at 14 days after and analyzed for activated TGF β1 in BALF by ELISA. *p < 0.05 increased compared to untreated WT. **p < 0.05 increased compared to control‐fed, bleomycin‐treated WT. # p < 0.05 decreased compared to alcohol‐fed, bleomycin‐treated WT. N = 4 to 6.
