Background Proline-rich tyrosine kinase 2 (Pyk2) is vital in neutrophil degranulation and chemotaxis in vitro. static lung compliance was determined by pressure-volume curve using a computer-controlled small animal ventilator. The extravasated Evans blue concentration in lung homogenate was determined spectrophotometrically. Results Intratracheal instillation of LPS induced significant neutrophil infiltration into the lung interstitium and alveolar… Continue reading Background Proline-rich tyrosine kinase 2 (Pyk2) is vital in neutrophil degranulation
