Figure 2. HE staining results illustrate the amelioration of lung tissue injury induced by septic shock in mice after DCs transfected with NLRC4-siRNA. (A) The lung tissue injury detected by HE staining (scale bar = 50 μm). (B) The lung tissue injury scores. n = 10. * p < 0.05 vs. the sham group. † p < 0.05 vs. the CLP and NC-siRNA groups. Data comparison among multiple groups was analyzed by one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), followed by Tukey’s post hoc test. The experiment was repeated 3 times independently.
