Figure 3

Lung function after ischemia-reperfusion injury in wild-type Kit+/+mice versus mast cell-deficient KitW-sh/W-shmice without (A-C) and with (D-F) LPS priming. (A, D) Lung water and (B, E) extravascular plasma equivalents were compared in left lungs, which were subjected to ischemia-reperfusion, and in right lungs, which were unligated controls. Four mice were analyzed per group except in the KitW-sh/W-sh without LPS group, in which one animal did not survive surgery. The bar graphs (C, F) show results of peripheral blood neutrophil concentrations determined in samples obtained at the time of lung harvest.
