Ras regulates alveolar macrophage formation of CXC chemokines and neutrophil activation in streptococcal M1 protein-induced lung injury.
MouseOtherC57BL/6MaleBefore M1 protein challenge
Model: Streptococcus pyogenes M1 protein-induced acute lung injury
Ras inhibition with FTS reduced neutrophil recruitment, oedema formation and tissue damage in the lung, decreased neutrophil Mac-1 expression and abolished M1 protein-provoked CXC chemokine gene expression in alveolar macrophages.
