Figure 8

CTCE decreased lung vascular leak and water content and increased miR-126 levels in LPS-induced ARDS. ARDS was induced by intratracheal instillation of LPS. Evans blue dye was injected to determine lung vascular leak (A). Lung tissue wet/dry ratio was determined as an index of lung water content (B). MicroRNA-126 expression was determined by real-time PCR of whole lung homogenate (C). *p < 0.05 compared with control group, #p < 0.05 compared with LPS groups. N = 5–6 mice/group.
