The inflammatory cell counts in BALF and lung histologic changes in the six groups (n = 6). (A) The inflammatory cell counts in BALF of each group. ILQ-SMEDDS treatment apparently decreased the inflammatory cell counts in BALF of OVA-induced asthma model. The data shown are the mean ± SD. * p < 0.05, **p < 0.01. (B and C) Lungs from the indicated mice sectioned and stained with Hematoxylin-Eosin stain ((B) H&E, ×400) and Periodic Acid-Schiff stain ((C) PAS, ×400). (i: Naïve group, PBS treatment; ii: Sham group, OVA i.p. and i.t. iii: Dex-treated mice (0.5 mg/kg) with OVA i.p. and i.t. iv: ILQ-treated mice (10 mg/kg) with OVA i.p. and i.t. v, vi: ILQ-SMEDDS-treated mice (10, 20 mg/kg) with OVA i.p. and i.t.).
