Fig 6. Gossypol does not alter inflammatory cell profiles in the lung.

Mice were exposed to bleomycin and treated with gossypol as indicated in Fig 2. Mice were sacrificed on day 7 and the left lung was lavaged with PBS and total cells in lavage fluid were counted (A). Cytospins were prepared, stained with Diff-Quik, and differential counts were performed for macrophages, lymphocytes, and polymorphonuclear (PMN) cells (B). Differential counts are expressed as percent of total cells. Data are displayed as mean ± SEM. *p≤0.05 by ANOVA. n = 5–10 mice.
