Figure X. Annexin A1 is induced following HDM challenge and mice deficient in ANXA1 have exacerbated airway hyper-
reactivity. (A) Schematic of house dust mite allergen dosing protocol. (B,C) Immunofluorescent staining of paraffin embedded
lung tissue sections incubated with anti-Annexin A1, counterstained with DAPI (magnification?). (D) mRNA expression of annexin
A1 in lung tissue following HDM exposure, expression normalized to housekeeping gene hprt. Mice receiving HDM were analysed
for changes in airway hyper-reactivity following methacholine (MCh) challenge in tracheotomized restrained mice. (E) Dose
response curve with increasing concentrations of MCh (F) airway resistance at top MCh dose 100mg/ml (G) compliance at top
MCh dose 100mg/ml, (H) total BAL leukocytes (I) BAL eosinophils , (J) T1/ST2+ lymphocytes quantified in the BAL. IL-4 (K) IL-5
and (L) IL-13 quantified by ELISA. * p<0.05 and ** p<0.01 relative to PBS control group by Mann Whitney test. + p<0.05 and ++
p<0.01 comparing HDM AnnexinA1 KO mice relative to HDM WT group by Mann Whitney test. Representative of two
