Figure 5

The distribution of leptin and OPN-positive cells in the nasal mucosa of OVA-challenged obese mice (c, g), OVA-challenged nonobese, and control mice (a, e). The count of leptin-positive cells (d) and OPN-positive cells (h) in nasal tissues was significantly higher compared with normal controls (The arrow shows representative cells).
