From: Goishi tea consumption inhibits airway hyperresponsiveness in BALB/c mice
Histological evaluation of lung specimens from Goishi tea-treated mouse and controls. Der f: Dermatophagoides farinae; H&E: hematoxylin and eosin staining; PAS: periodic acid-schiff, al, alveolus; br, bronchiole; v, blood vessel. Scale bars = 100 μm. The figure shows a marked goblet cells hyperplasia (G), eosinophilic infiltration (E) and smooth muscle mass enlargement (S) in lung specimens from Der f-challenged control mice (Tap water/Der f), while these processes were reduced in Goishi tea and Gallic acid-treated mice groups.
