Figure 3. Inflammatory mediators are elevated in BALF from mice fed EV diet vs. DEV diet following acute DE exposure.
Mice were fed EV or DEV diet for 7 wks followed by a single DE challenge. IL-6 (A), TNF-α (B), CXCL1 (C), and AREG (D) were measured 5 h following DE intranasal challenge. Medians and quartiles are shown for N=8 (saline) or N=9 (DE) mice per group. *p<0.05; §p<0.0001, by ANOVA.
