TM does not influence neutrophil recruitment to the lungs during pneumonia or LPS-induced inflammation. Neutrophil influx in BALF 48 hours, 24 hours, and 6 hours, respectively, after intranasal inoculation with S pneumoniae (A), K pneumoniae (B), and LPS (C) in Wt (□) and TMpro/pro (▪) mice. Mean ± SEM; n = 6 per group. Myeloperoxidase content in lung homogenates of Wt (□) and TMpro/pro (▪) mice 48 hours, 24 hours, and 6 hours, respectively, after intranasal inoculation with S pneumoniae (D), K pneumoniae (E), and LPS (F). Mean ± SEM; n = 8 per group.
