In vivo anti-inflammatory effects of peptides in acute lung injury. Pseudomonas aeruginosa LPS (500 ng) was intratracheally instilled in mice lungs. One hour after instillation, peptides were intratracheally administered, followed by monitoring for 3 days. Lungs collected from the euthanized mice were digitally visualized and tissues were stained using eosin/alcian blue, H&E, PE-conjugated TNF-α, and IL6 antibody. Bar is 50 µm.
