Effects of leytragin administration on LPS-induced elevations of HMGB1 release and mRNA levels. (a) Time courses for HMGB1 protein release into BAL in LPS-induced mice that received a single inhalation of leytragin or saline; 27–29 animals per group were used (3–4 per indicated time point). (b) The relative levels of HMGB1 mRNA in LPS-induced mice receiving inhalation of leytragin or saline; 75 animals per group were used (5 per indicated time point); , vs. LPS+saline, two-way ANOVA, and post hoc Bonferroni’s test (see the text). Bars represent the .
