(a) Changes in apoptosis of lung tissue in each group. (A) DAPI in the control group; (B) DAPI in the ALI group; (C) DAPI in the ALI+KGF-2 group; (D) number of apoptotic cells in the control group; apoptotic cells were sparse and scattered; (E) apoptotic cells in ALI group, diffuse distribution of apoptotic cells; (F) number of apoptotic cells in ALI+KGF-2 group, scattered number of apoptotic cells; (G) control group mixed images; (H) mixed images of ALI group; (I) mixed images of ALI+KGF-2 group medium magnification. (b) Statistical analysis of apoptosis of lung tissue of each group (< 0.01 versus control group, #<0.01 versus ALI group).
