Figure Lengend Snippet: Cisplatin-induced increase in ICAM-1 and CXCL1 was reduced in NOX2-KO mice. (A,G,H) sICAM expression with Luminex assay was decreased in the NOX2-KO CDDP group compared to the WT CDDP group on day 3, and the area of ICAM-1 labeling (black arrow) through immunohistochemical staining was increased in WT-CDDP but not in NOX2 KO-CDDP mice. (B,C,F) sP-selectin, VEGF, and GM-CSF levels with Luminex assay were not significantly different between the WT CDDP and NOX2-KO CDDP groups on day 3. (D,E) The level of chemokine CXCL1 was significantly lower in the NOX2-KO CDDP group on day 3. However, another chemokine, CXCL2, showed no change between the WT CDDP and NOX2-KO groups. Data represent the mean ± standard error of five mice per group. Scale bar = 100 μM. The experiment was repeated twice with similar results.
