Neutrophil depletion reduced NETs and ALI. (A) Infiltration of inflammatory cells and interstitial edema in the lung lobe were reduced in the ALI model mice with neutrophil depletion, bar = 100 μm; (B-1) cells were counted in the BALF, ^∗p < 0.05; (B-2) protein concentration in the BALF, ^∗p < 0.05; (B-3) neutrophil elastase (NE) activity was evaluated in the BALF, ^∗p < 0.05; (C) flow cytometry analysis of the BALF cells, ^∗p < 0.05; (D) inflammatory cytokines IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α in the lung were quantified using qRT-PCR, ^∗p < 0.05; (E) NETs were observed and quantified in lung tissues from mice administered poly I:C and 1A8 antibody. (F) Effects of 1A8 on neutrophil depletion were validated by flow cytometry.
