Quantification of lung apoptosis. Representative images of TUNEL+ cells in A) sham vehicle, B) burn ethanol + PBS, and C) burn ethanol + MSC treated mice are shown, where green indicates TUNEL+ cells and blue indicates DAPI nuclear stain. D) Quantification of TUNEL+ cells. Representative data from two independent experiments are shown, n=4-6 per group, per experiment. Data are presented as the average number of TUNEL+ cells in one 200x high power field. *p<0.05 compared sham-injured, vehicle treated controls, by One-way ANOVA with Tukey’s multiple comparison post-test.
