SFN attenuates BLM-induced lung alveolitis. (A) Hematoxylin and eosin staining of lung tissues at 7 and 28 days following SFN treatment. BLM induced lung alveolitis, which was attenuated by SFN treatment. Magnification, ×200. (B) The Szapiel alveolitis score was lower in the BLM/SFN group, compared with the BLM group at day 7 and 28. (C) Western blot analysis for TNF-α and IL-1β protein expression levels was used to investigate the effect of SFN on BLM-induced lung alveolitis at day 7 and 28 post-treatment. Data are presented as the mean ± standard deviation (n=6/group). #P<0.05 vs. control group; *P<0.05 vs. BLM group. BLM, bleomycin; SFN, sulforaphane; TNF-α; tumor necrosis factor-α, IL-1β, interleukin-1β; Ctrl, control.
