Macrophage cell counts. BAL from exposed and unexposed WT and TLR9-deficient (TLR9-) mice (n = 6) was spun briefly at 400 g, supernatant removed, and cells resuspended and stained with a hemacolor kit. Macrophages were counted and numbers converted to absolute numbers. Macrophage numbers were higher in 1 day exposed TLR9−/− animals compared to WT mice (* = p ≤ 0.05). A similar increase was seen in 20 day control TLR9−/− mice compared to WT mice exposed for the same time (* = p ≤ 0.05)
