FIG. 8.
Effects of splenectomy on ozone-induced expression of inflammatory genes. mRNA, prepared from lungs 24–72 h after exposure of CTL and SPX mice to air or ozone, was analyzed by real-time PCR. Data are presented as fold change relative to GAPDH. Bars, mean ± SE (n = 3 mice/treatment group). aSignificantly different (P < .05) from air-exposed animals. bSignificantly different (P < .05) from CTL mice.
