From: Protective effects of aerobic exercise on acute lung injury induced by LPS in mice
Expression of IL-6 (a), IL-10 (b) and TNF-α (c) in lung tissue. In (a) and (b) * indicates a significant effect of exercise in increasing the expression of IL-6 and IL-10 in lung tissue (P <0.001) and (P = 0.002), respectively. In (c) * indicates significant effect of LPS in increasing the expression of TNF-α in lung tissue (P = 0.001). # indicates significant effect of exercise in attenuating the effect of LPS on the expression of TNF-α in lung tissue (P = 0.001). CTR (control): instilled with saline and untrained; Exe (exercise): instilled with saline and trained; LPS: instilled with LPS and untrained; Exe+LPS: instilled with LPS and trained. LPS, lipopolysaccharide.
