Omega-9 reduced leukocyte migration to the peritoneal cavity in septic mice. Animals were treated with omega-9 for 14 days. On the 15th day, CLP was performed; 6 h and 24 h after, the peritoneal lavage was collected for the leukocyte counts. Counts of peritoneal neutrophils (a) and systemic neutrophils (b) 6 h after CLP and counts of peritoneal neutrophils (c) and systemic neutrophils (d). Control groups received the same volume of saline. Results are mean ± SEM from at least 7 animals. and + compared to sham and sham + omega-9, respectively, and # compared to CLP.
