Effects of local oxygen enrichment on the gene expression and protein production of cytokines in lung tissues of rats exposed to 4-week hypobaric hypoxia. (A–C) Statistical results for the mRNA expression of Col1α1, Col3α1, and endothelin-1 (ET-1) based on the real-time PCR analysis. (D) Evaluation of the ET-1 protein production in lung tissues based on ELISA. All data are expressed as mean ± SD (n = 12). NC, normal control group; HAH, high-altitude hypoxia group; and HAHO, high-altitude hypoxia with oxygen enrichment group. ***p < 0.001 vs. the NC group, ##p < 0.01 vs. the HAH group, and ###p < 0.001 vs. the HAH group.
