Fig. 7. Impact of particle exposure and DHA treatment on macrophage phenotype in semi-acute model.

Fig. 7

Balb/c mice were instilled once with either DM-only, MWCNT, or SiO2 at week 0, kept on the normal mouse chow for 1 week, and then put on either a control or 1% DHA diet for 3 weeks. Relative gene expression of control diet MWCNT or SiO2 mice were normalized to control diet DM-only mice for assessment of particle effect in (a) lung and (c) spleen tissue. Relative gene expression of 1% DHA diet mice were normalized to corresponding control diet mice for assessment of diet effect in (b) lung and (d) spleen tissue. Each bar within the heat maps consist of 5–7 mice for lung tissue and 4–5 mice for spleen tissue
