Figure 1: PFD and BIBF ameliorated impaired lung function in
silica-treated mice. (A) Schematic diagram of intragastric
administration of PFD or BIBF in silica-induced pulmonary fibrosis mice
(n=9 per group). Indexes of lung capacity, including IC (B) ,
and FVC (C) . Indexes of flow rate, including FEV100(D) and MMEF (E) . Indexes of resistance, including RI(F) . Indexes of lung compliance, including Cdyn (G)and Cchord (H) . Bar values were shown as the mean ± SE. ∗
denotes the group compared to Si group. ∗P < 0.05, and
ns indicates no significance. The range of P -values for ∗ and #
is identical.
