PA induces lung oedema and epithelium damage during pneumonia. (a) Pulmonary bacteria loads of mice infected with PA for 24 and 48 hours. Data are representative of two independent experiments (n = 8). (b) Lung histological analysis from sham Swiss mice (panel 1) or PA infected mice at 6 (panel 2), 24 (panel 3), and 48hrs (panel 4) of infection. Magnification × 100 (bar = 100 μm). Data are representative of two independent experiments (n = 3). (c) Alveolar space quantification by SIOX analysis of histology slides presented in (b) (3 mice per slide. 4 fields per slide). (d) Red blood cell counts in BALF fluid in sham mice versus 24-hour infected mice. Data are representative of two independent experiments (n = 3). **p < 0.01 and ***p < 0.001.
