Figure 2. Effect of TC on the total cells in BALF. The control group (mice exposed to room air and treated daily with corn oil). CS group (mice exposed to 6 cigarettes per day for 5 continuous days and treated with corn oil). CS+LY18 (mice exposed to 6 cigarettes per day for 5 continuous days and treated with lycopene 18 mg/kg). CS+TC18, CS+TC12, CS+TC9 (mice exposed to 6 cigarettes per day for 5 continuous days and treated with TC 18, 12, 9 mg/kg respectively). We performed one-way ANOVA followed by the Duncan posttest (p<0.05, n=8) to compare between groups. Different letters appear statistically significant differences between groups, p<0.05. Data were expressed as Means ±SDs
