From: Rapamycin prevents lung injury related to acute spinal cord injury in rats

Evaluation of the damage/injury status of the lungs in each group at different time points. (a) Hematoxylin and eosin-stained sections of lung tissue showing alveolar stroma thickening, inflammatory exudation, hemorrhage, and pulmonary congestion. Representative results at 12, 24, 48 and 72 h are shown. Original magnification × 100 and × 400. (b) Pathological scoring of lung tissue sections (mean ± SD). (c) Lung wet-to-dry ratios at 12, 24, 48 and 72 h (mean ± SD). One-way analysis of variance and the Least Significant Difference test were used to compare the data. *P < 0.05 vs. the sham group (#p < 0.05). Veh, vehicle; Rapa, rapamycin; ASCI, acute spinal cord injury.
