TIMP1/2 IHC staining of lung from lean and obese mice after BTT. A) TIMP1 and B) TIMP2 staining in lean and obese mice from control animals as well as 1 h, 6 h, 24 h, 72 h and 192 h post trauma. The area of positive staining was measured and is depicted as values next to the respective depiction of the staining for TIMP1 (C) and TIMP2 (D). The data is presented as mean ± SEM. Statistical significance was determined using two-way ANOVA followed by an uncorrected Fisher’s LSD test (α = 0.05) ** indicates p < 0.01
