Fig. 5. ADMSC-exosomes alleviated sepsis-induced lung injury by mediating the secretion of IL-17.

A The survival rate of mice within 7 days (sham group: N = 10; other groups: N = 15). B The mRNA expressions of IL-6, TNF-α, and IL-1β in mouse lung tissue were detected using RT-qPCR 24 h after CLP induction, N = 8. C The protein contents of IL-6, TNF-α and IL-1β in mouse lung tissues were detected using ELISA. D The wet/dry ratio was used to calculate the formation of pulmonary edema, N = 8. E 24 h after CLP, Evans blue dye was injected to measure pulmonary vascular leakage, N = 8. F The morphological changes of lung were measured (scale bar = 25 μm) and the tissue injury was quantitatively analyzed (N = 8) using HE staining. Measurement data are depicted as mean ± SD. One-way ANOVA was employed for the comparisons among multiple groups, followed by Tukey’s multiple comparisons test. *p < 0.05 vs. CLP + PBS group; #p < 0.05 vs. CLP + Exo group. Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate the survival rate. Log-rank test was used for univariate analysis.
