A Subanesthetic Dose of Isoflurane during Postconditioning Ameliorates Zymosan-Induced Neutrophil Inflammation Lung Injury and Mortality in Mice

Figure 6

Effects of 0.7% ISO treatment on iNOS/NO production in ZY-treated lung at 24 hrs. iNOS protein expression was assayed by immunohistochemistry (a) and western blot (b). (c) The average iNOS staining from western blots was quantified by arbitrary densitometry units. (d) iNOS enzyme activity in the four treatment groups. (e) Nitrite levels in the four treatment groups as an indicator of NO formation. The animals were treated as shown in Figure 1(a). Data represent means ± SD (𝑛=10mice per group).^∗𝑃<0.05versus sham + vehicle;^#𝑃<0.05versus ZY + vehicle.
