Abstract excerpt
We examined ozone-induced airway inflammatory responses in inbred mice, and progeny of crosses between them, to investigate genetic susceptibility to ozone. Nine strains of male mice (18-23 g, 5-7 wk) were exposed for 3 h to 2 ppm ozone (O3) or filtered air (control), and pulmonary inflammation was assessed 2, 6, and 24 h after exposure by inflammatory cell counts and total protein content in bronchoalveolar...
