Data show the n-fold change compared to medium controls of relative DCF fluorescence in A549 and 16HBE14o- cells, the n-fold change of relative IL-8 mRNA expression in A549, 16HBE14o- and Calu-3 cells, respectively, and the changes of TEER in Calu-3 cells after 24 h CBNP exposure

Data are mean ± SD. n = 3–5, *p < 0.05 and **p < 0.01 CBNP compared to medium controls analyzed by two-sided Student’s t-test for unpaired values (ROS analysis and TEER results) or Mann Whitney U test (mRNA expression data)
