Phage therapy did not increase lung inflammation in mice. Numbers of leukocytes and percentages of alveolar macrophages (AM) and polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) in BAL of mice were analyzed at 24 h (A) and 48 h p.i. (B) by flow cytometry. Data are presented as box plots depicting median, quartiles and range excluding outliers (open circles) and analyzed using 2-way ANOVA and Tukey´s multiple comparisons test; n = 8 (sham-infected groups); n = 8–11 (A. baumannii infected groups). # indicates significant difference between infected vs. corresponding sham group. # p < 0.05, ## p < 0.01 and ### p < 0.001.
