Evaluation of DNA damages induced by GO sheets after repeated exposure. A Quantification of lung DNA damages using rabbit anti-mouse γ-H2Ax-Phosphorilated Ser139 immunostaining after repeated exposure to 3 × 10 µg (high dose) of GO sheets (USGO or LGO) and MWCNTs (positive control/reference materials), expressed as fold change in fluorescence intensity (negative control = water for injection). B Percentage of γ-H2Ax imunoreactivity (fluorescence intensity) located in lung immune cell infiltrates or in lung parenchyma at day 1, 7, 28 and 84 after repeated exposure to 3 × 10 µg. C Quantification of lung DNA damages after repeated exposure to 3 × 1 µg (low dose) of materials. D Percentage of γ-H2Ax imunoreactivity (fluorescence intensity) located in lung immune cell infiltrates or in lung parenchyma at day 1, 7 and 28 after repeated exposure to 3 × 1 µg. E Total number of γ-H2Ax positive cells in lung parenchyma (outside inflammatory infiltrates) expressed as fold change in fluorescence intensity, after repeated exposure to 3 × 10 µg. F Percentage of E-cadherin+ γ-H2Ax+ cells and CD45+ γ-H2Ax+ cells in lung parenchyma at day 1, 7, 28 and 84 after exposure. G Total number of γ-H2Ax positive cells in lung parenchyma (outside inflammatory infiltrates) expressed as fold change in fluorescence intensity, after repeated exposure to 3 × 1 µg. H Percentage of E-cadherin+ γ-H2Ax+ cells and CD45+ γ-H2Ax+ cells in lung parenchyma at day 1, 7 and 28 after exposure. Significance level *p < 0.05 **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001 (One-Way ANOVA; n = 3)
