Figure Lengend Snippet: Relationship between inflammatory cell infiltration and gene expression of each 5 chemokines in exposed lung. ( A ) CXCL5 mRNA expression, ( C ) CCL2 mRNA expression, ( E ) CCL7 mRNA expression, ( G ) CXCL10 mRNA expression, ( I ) CXCL11 mRNA expression at 1 week after the instillation versus score of inflammatory cell infiltration and ( B ) CXCL5 mRNA expression, ( D ) CCL2 mRNA expression, ( F ) CCL7 mRNA expression, ( H ) CXCL10 mRNA expression, ( J ) CXCL11 mRNA expression at 1 month after the instillation versus score of inflammatory cell infiltration. There was relatively good correlation between inflammatory cell infiltration in lung tissues and CXCL5 , CCL2 , and CCL7 at one week and one month after intratracheal instillation.
Article Snippet: The upregulation of CXCL5 , CCL2 , and CCL7 was evaluated by immunostaining with rabbit anti-mouse CXCL5 polyclonal antibody (1:200 dilution, bs-2549R; Bioss Inc., Woburn, MA, USA), goat anti-rat CCL2 polyclonal antibody (1:200 dilution, sc-1785; Santa Cruz Biotechnologies, Inc., Dallas, CA, USA), and goat anti-mouse CCL7 polyclonal antibody (1:50 dilution, sc-21202; Santa Cruz Biotechnologies, Inc., Dallas, CA, USA), respectively, while using the lung tissue samples from the NiO-high dose group of one month after intratracheal instillation.
