Effect of GM-CSF on EMT in radiated pulmonary fibrosis. (A) Western blot analysis of EMT markers in radiated lung tissues with/without GM-CSF treatment at 10 weeks. Quantification analysis of raw density of Western blot figures are measured in different groups. (B) GM-CSF reduced the expression levels of ECA, VIM and TGF-β1. Representative images of IHC staining of ECA, VIM, and TGF-β1 are assessed in lung tissues from different groups at 10 weeks. Error bar indicates mean ± standard deviation (n=6; **, P<0.01). GM-CSF, granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor; EMT, epithelial-mesenchymal transition; ECA, E-cadherin; VIM, vimentin; IHC, immunohistochemistry.
