Anti-Inflammatory Effects of Ellagic Acid on Acute Lung Injury Induced by Acid in Mice

Figure 5

Effect of therapeutic treatment with ellagic acid on the activation of phospho-c-Jun AP-1. Representative images of phospho-c-Jun AP-1 immunohistochemistry staining of control, HCl + vehicle group, HCl + ellagic acid group, and HCl + dexamethasone group (magnification: 200) (a). The mean intensity of phospho-c-Jun AP-1 staining was determined from image analysis and represented as arbitrary units (b). The analyses of lung were carried out in the peak of inflammation (12 h). Values represent the mean SEM ( per group) for immunohistochemical analysis. compared with control group;   compared with HCl + vehicle group.
