From: Cigarette smoke inhibits BAFF expression and mucosal immunoglobulin A responses in the lung during influenza virus infection

Figure 1

Cigarette smoke (CS) induces inflammation but inhibits BAFF expression in the lung. Mice were exposed to room air (RA) or CS for 1 month, 3 months or 6 months. The relative mRNA levels of (A) BAFF and (C) keratinocyte-derived chemokine (KC) in the lung, (B) BAFF protein levels and (D) the total leukocyte counts in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid are shown (n = 5–10 mice/group). *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01.
