DSE inhibits the recruitment of inflammatory cells to lung tissue of mice 48 h after the final OVA challenge. (A) Histological examination of lung tissue with H&E stain (magnification x200). (B) Quantitative analysis of inflammatory cell infiltration in lung sections. NC, normal control mice treated PBS only; OVA, OVA-sensitized/induced mice; Mon, montelukast (30 mg/kg) + OVA-sensitized/induced mice; DSE-100, DSE (100 mg/kg) + OVA-sensitized/induced mice; DSE-200, DSE (200 mg/kg) + OVA-sensitized/induced mice. Values are expressed as mean ± SEM (n = 6/group). ##Significantly different from NC, P < 0.01; **Significantly different from OVA, P < 0.01
