Figure 4

Effects of protease inhibitors on T-cell subsets in BALF and serum antibodies. (a) The percentage of CD3+/CD4+, CD3+/CD8+, and CD4+/CD25+ lymphocytes was determined by flow cytometry. (b) Total IgE and Der p-specific IgG1 and IgG2a/2b levels were determined by ELISA. Results are expressed as means ± SD’s for 6 mice/group. versus naïve group; between Der p-treated groups.
