Anti-Inflammatory Effects of Ellagic Acid on Acute Lung Injury Induced by Acid in Mice
Figure 7
Ellagic acid accelerates the resolution of inflammation of acid-initiated acute lung injury. correspond to the time point to reduce 50% of neutrophils. The resolution interval (Ri) is defined as the time required for cell numbers to decrease to 50% of the maximum at peak inflammation (the interval between peak of inflammation (at 12 h) and ). These indices were calculated when ellagic acid, dexamethasone, or vehicle were administrated in the resolution phase at 12 h after the peak of inflammation (24 h). Results represent the mean SEM of two or more independent experiments with three mice per group per experiment. compared with control group; compared with HCl + vehicle group.
