Abstract excerpt
Susceptibility to ozone (O3)-induced pulmonary inflammation is greater in C57BL/6J (B6) than in C3H/HeJ (C3) strain of mice. We tested the hypothesis that altered ventilatory control occurs in B6 mice to a greater extent than in C3 mice after acute O3 exposure. Age-, sex-, and weight-matched C3 and B6 mice were exposed for 3 h to either 2 ppm O3 or filtered air. One and 24 h after O3 or air exposure, whole body...
