From: Intestinal helminth infection enhances bacteria-induced recruitment of neutrophils to the airspace
Helminth-induced increase in neutrophil migration during P. aeruginosa infection is correlated with increased MPO and ELA2 levels within the airspace. Protein extracts were prepared from BAL samples and analyzed for (a) neutrophil myeloperoxidase (MPO) and (b) elastase (ELA2). (c) LDH levels were assessed in the cell-free supernatant of the BAL to assess cytotoxicity. Data are shown as mean ± SD and are representative of three independent experiments. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01.
