Fig. (2) Effects of intranasally administered sphingosine-1-
phosphate (S1P; 10-5 M, 20 µL) on cell number in bronchoalveolar
lavage fluids (BALFs) obtained from control (Control) and
repeatedly antigen-challenged (Challenged) mice. Each column
represents the mean with SEM from 3 (Vehicle-Control) and 5 (the
others) different animals. *P < 0.05 vs Vehicle-Control and ***P <
0.001 vs S1P-Challenged by Bonferroni/Dunn’s test. The antigeninduced
increase in cell number was significantly augmented by the
S1P treatment (Vehicle-Challenged vs S1P-Challenged, ##P < 0.01
by Bonferroni/Dunn’s test).
