WT mice were treated with saline (CL, white bars) or BLM (grey bars) for 6 h, 24 h, 72 h, 7 days, 14 days, or 21 days, as indicated. (A, B) Gene expression levels of IL‐17A and IL‐17F in sorted TCRαβ pos (A) and TCRγδ pos T cells collected from lungs of BLM‐exposed WT mice. (C, D) Intracellular IL‐17A and IL‐17F protein expression of CD4 pos T cells (C) and TCRγδ pos T cells (D) of WT and IL17af −/− mice was measured 72 h post‐BLM by flow cytometry. (E, F) IL‐17A protein levels in BALF (E) and lung (F) of saline vs. BLM‐treated mice quantified by ELISA. Data are shown as scatter plots with mean values indicated as horizontal lines (A, B) or as mean ± SD of n = 9–12 (A, B), or n = 5–11 (C, D), or n = 4–8 (E, F) mice per group and time point. Note that in A and B, one data point represents a pool of T cells sorted from n = 2–3 mice per experimental group and time point. Data in (C–F) are representative of two independent experiments. * p ≤ 0.05, ** p ≤ 0.01 compared with mice from the control group (Mann–Whitney U ‐test).
