Epigallocatechin-3-gallate Ameliorates Seawater Aspiration-Induced Acute Lung Injury via Regulating Inflammatory Cytokines and Inhibiting JAK/STAT1 Pathway in Rats

Table 2

Comparison of the quantitated IOD of STAT1 and p-STAT1 staining in lung in seawater aspiration-induced ALI.

Groups	IOD of STAT1	IOD of P-STAT1
Control	2.02±0.34	1.53±0.37
EGCG	2.24±0.16	1.75±0.28
Seawater	6.82±0.37^∗	5.67±0.39^∗
Seawater + EGCG	4.67±0.34^#	3.42±0.29^#

Note: difference in immunohistochemical staining evaluated by image analysis program. Data are represented as mean ± SEM; ^∗𝑃<0.05 versus control group; ^#𝑃<0.05 versus seawater group; 𝑛=10.
