YT + RH reduces CS-induced inflammation in mice. (a) The inflammation cells differentials in BALF were stained with diff-quick staining. (b–d) The total counts of cells, macrophages, and neutrophils from the BALF were counted. (e–j) Inflammatory cytokines were detected by ELISA. n = 7 in the Blank group, CS group, YT group, and YT + RH group, n = 6 in RH group, and n = 5 in SCMC group. The values are presented as the mean ± SD. ##P<0.01 and ###<0.001 versus the Blank group;  < 0.05,  < 0.01, and  < 0.001 versus the CS group.
