Intravenous infusion of mesenteric lymph from severe intraperitoneal infection rats causes lung injury in healthy rats

Figure 4 Compared with the control infusion group, toll-like receptor-4 and nuclear factor-κB expression levels were significantly increased in the severe intraperitoneal infusion group. Density of Toll-like receptor (TLR)-4 (A) and nuclear factor (NF)-κB (B) in lung protein extracts of SII and control rats was examined using Western blotting. All results (mean ± SD) are representative of two experiments (n = 10 rats in each group). ^fP < 0.01 vs SII infusion group.
