Depletion of the pleural space cellular environment increases the broncho-alveolar neutrophilic influx during airway inflammation. Cellular enumeration of (A) CD11b⁺ linage⁻(CD19⁺B220⁺CD90.2⁺NK1.1⁺Terr119⁺CD49b⁺) cells, (B) neutrophils (linage⁻Ly6G⁺CD11b⁺ MHCII⁻CD11c⁻F4/80⁻Ly6C^int.), and (C) linage⁺CD11b⁻ cells 1 day after i.pls. injection of clodronate liposomes, after flushing of the pleural space and in control mice. (n = 4-6; data shown in means ± S.D.; *p < 0.05).
