Figure 8 JNK inhibition blocked the DUSP12 knockdown-mediated worsening of ALI in mice. (A) H&E staining (n=5, magnification: 200). (B) Lung wet weight/dry weight ratio (D/W ratio) (n=10). (C) Lung injury score (n=6). (D) Proinflammatory factor levels in alveolar lavage fluid as measured by ELISA (n=6) (* P<0.05 vs Ad-shDUSP12-LPS, NS – not significant).
