2 Fig. 1 Schematic illustration shows the stimuli that induce IL-11 production, the cells that produce IL-11 in the lung, and the major effector functions of IL-11 in pulmonary and extrapulmonary tissues.

3 Fig. 2 Components of the lung-targeted overexpression transgenic systems used in the investigation of IL-11. The single-construct constitutive system is presented in A ; the dual-construct inducible system is presented in B .

4 Fig. 3 Histologic features of CC10–IL-11 transgenic mice. The photomicrographs compare transgene-negative and transgene-positive mice through use of hematoxylin-eosin and Trichrome evaluations. Airway fibrosis and enlarged alveoli are readily apparent. Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology  , DOI: ( /mai ) Copyright © 2001 Mosby, Inc. Terms and Conditions
