βENaC overexpression induced reduction of bronchiolar epithelial SPNS2 expression associated with mucus obstruction. a-d Representative confocal images of SPNS2 (green) in (a) wild type control, (b) βENaC unobstructed, versus (c) obstructed bronchiole; (d) a negative staining control showing no binding of AF488-conjugated anti-goat IgG. Blue is labelling of nuclei by DAPI. Scale bars are in micrometers. e Box plot represents MFI values of SPNS2 expression measured from individual βENaC mice, unobstructed (red) versus mucus obstructed (green) bronchioles. Mann-Whitney, * p < 0.05. Each dot represents the average of 10 bronchioles
