ELISA was used to detect the protein levels of IL-17A in serum (a) and BALF (b). The mRNA and protein levels of IL-17A in lung tissues from different groups were measured by qPCR (c), immunohistochemistry (d), and Western blot analysis (e). All data were presented as mean ± SD; n = 10 for each group; ***P < 0.001, ****P < 0.0001, ns (no statistical significance).
