Assessment of inflammatory responses after laser treatment at 20 W for 15 s: (A) hematoxylin and eosin (HE) and immunohistochemistry (IHC)-stained images of urethral submucosal tissue (20×; scale bars = 30 μm, black arrowhead = inflammatory cells). The red boxes represent the magnified HE-stained images and the brown color of IHC-stained images represents the expression of an IL-6 antibody marker. (B) Quantification of relative expression of inflammatory marker (IL-6) in urethral tissues (CTRL = no laser irradiation; D0 and D28 = day 0 and day 28 after laser irradiation; *P < 0.05).
