Ectoine application reduces neutrophilic lung inflammation induced by CNP in Balb/c mice. a Experimental design, animals (n = 5) were exposed to PBS (control), 2.5 mg/kg CNP, or 2.5 mg/kg CNP with 1 mM ectoine (E) and subsequently sacrificed at the indicate time points. b Differential cell numbers in BAL (means, SEM). c CXCL1 levels in BAL. * significant differences were observed in total cell numbers, neutrophil numbers and CXCL1 levels (p < 0.05, Mann Whitney U-test)
