Differential Regulation of Inflammation and Immunity in Mild and Severe Experimental Asthma

Figure 2

Total and differential BAL fluid cell counts in mild and severe allergic asthma. The total inflammatory cell number in BAL fluid is shown in (a) mild model and (b) severe model. The differential cell counts are shown as percentages of the total cell count in (c) mild model and (d) severe model. Results are presented as mean ± SEM, 𝑛=9 mice/group. Student’s t-test was used to compare the means of the OVA-sensitized and challenged mice with the means of only challenged mice for each cell type, *𝑃<0.05; **𝑃<0.01; ***𝑃<0.0001.
