Assessment of lung histopathology in mice following ischemia-reperfusion injury. Pulmonary mastocytosis was generated by injection BMCMC into KitW-sh/W-sh mice tail veins and waiting 18 weeks to allow maturation. Hematoxylin and eosin staining in left lungs subjected to ischemia-reperfusion injury (D-F) as compared with contralateral non-ischemic (A-C) lungs demonstrates lung injury in the wild-type Kit+/+(A, D), mast cell deficient KitW-sh/Wsh(B, E), and BMCMC-injected KitW-sh/Wsh mice (C, F). Scale bar denotes 100 μm.
