1. Activation of NK cells during the early stage of allergic and fibrotic lung inflammation.
Activation of NK cells during the early stage of allergic and fibrotic lung inflammation. Absolute numbers of lymphocyte populations, including T cell subsets, Th1 cells (IFN-γ+ CD4+ T cells), Th17 cells (IL-17A+ CD4+ T cells), and regulatory T cells (Foxp3+ CD4+ T cells), per gram of lung tissue during the early stage of papain-induced (A–C and E) or bleomycin-induced (A, B, D, and F) lung inflammation. Percentage of IFN-γ–producing NK cells from papain-treated (G) or bleomycin-treated (H) mice. All data are representative of at least three independent experiments and are represented as the mean ± SEM (A and B) n = 4; (C–H) n = 6. *p < 0.05, **p <
