Gene Expression in Lung Tissue. Realtive mRNA expression of IL-6 (Il6), MIP-2 (Cxcl2), MCP-1 (Ccl2), MDC (Ccl22), and osteopontin (Spp1) relative to DM control at all time points post-exposure, with the exception of Spp1 which was not measured at 4 h post-exposure. Low dose groups were not evaluated at 1 and 2 months post-exposure. *significantly different from all groups; # significantly different from DM only; ^ significantly different from DM, Gr20-Low, Gr5-Low, and Gr1-Low; p < 0.05
