1 Rapamycin Blocks Fibrocyte Migration and Attenuates Bronchiolitis Obliterans in a Murine Model

2 Fig 1 Representative immunohistochemical staining of tracheal grafts for smooth muscle actin (SMA) at day 14 after transplantation. Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) controls demonstrate positive SMA staining (Fast-Red) within the tracheal lumen, indicative of the developing fibrosis. Rapamycin-treated tracheas show no SMA staining within the lumen. (Magnification, ×40. BF = bright field; Fast-Red = SMA stain; DAPI = 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole [nuclear stain; Merged = Fast-Red + DAPI together.)

3 Fig 2 Rapamycin treatment reduces luminal obliteration of tracheal allografts at day 28 after transplantation. (A) Images of representative hematoxylin and eosin stains of tracheal allografts. Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)-treated specimens show complete luminal obliteration with fibrosis; rapamycin-treated specimens shows no luminal obliteration (pink substance within lumen is mucus). (B) Bar graph of percent luminal obliteration in each treatment group; n = 8 tracheas per group. Data shown are mean ± standard error of the mean.
