Vimentin-Rab7a Pathway Mediates the Migration of MSCs and Lead to Therapeutic Effects on ARDS

Figure 1

Construction of LPS-induced ARDS model in mice. 50 μL of LPS at a concentration of 2 mg/mL was injected into the airway of mice. Left lung tissues of mice were taken at 1 W, 2 W, 4 W, and 16 W for H&E staining (a) and quantified using the Ashcroft score (c). Masson staining was used to assess the degree of fibrosis in the left lung tissue at 1 W, 4 W, and 16 W after LPS-induced ARDS (b) and quantified by calculating the blue stained area (d). Statistical results are represented by . , .
