The effect of sema3A treatment on the concentration of inflammatory cells in the BAL. (A) A representative picture of inflammatory cells in the BAL fluid of vehicle treated mice. (B) A representative picture of inflammatory cells in the BAL fluid of sema3A treated mice. (C) Comparison of the average grade of inflammatory cells in the BAL of vehicle vs. sema3A treated mice as determined by the counting of 3–5 microscope fields derived from 15 mice in each group followed by grading as described in materials and methods. Error bars represent the standard error of the mean. Statistical significance was determined using the Mann–Whitney non-parametric test.
