Figure 8. ELISA results of rat serum and alveolar lavage fluid. The black bars represent the expression levels of factors in serum, and the gray bars represent factor levels in alveolar lavage fluid. Data were expressed as the mean ± S.E.M. (n = 10). #p < 0.05 vs. control group. *p < 0.05, ***p < 0.001 vs. model group.
