Phagocytic capability of alveolar macrophages in Sham and Stroke animals (a). Alveolar macrophages were exposed to serum and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) from Sham and Stroke animals (n = 6/each). Phagocytic capability (b) as well as gene expressions of interleukin (IL)-6 (c) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α (d) were analyzed. Values are mean ± SD of 6 animals/group.
