eGFP staining in representative lung panels. Representative panel of a control mouse lung (A and B) constitutively expressing GFP and wild-type mouse lung (C) injected with eGFP bone marrow-derived cells (BMDCs). Panels D, E, F and G are representative panels of recipient mouse lung 12 days after injection with eGFP BMDCs, which occurred 3 days after acute lung injury by a single administration of MCTp. Staining was detected in few cells in alveolar space, bronchial and distal arteries. Panel H. representative panel of recipient mouse lung exposed to hypoxia for 15 days and 12 days after injection with eGFP BMDCs: no staining was detected. Original magnification ×125 (A, D and H) ×500 (B, C, E, F and G).
