LPS-induced ALI is considered a neutrophil-dependent ALI that contributes to local recruitment and activation of neutrophils [8] ; the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-1β, and IL-6; and the formation of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species [9] [10] [11] . Therefore, with a mouse model of acute lung inflammation, the present study was undertaken to examine the effect of Prime-O-glucosylcimifugin on acute lung injury induced by intranasal instillation of LPS in BALB/c mice and investigate its possible mechanisms. Acute lung injury is characterized by systemic airway inflammatory response including cytokines (e.g., TNF-α, IL-6, IL-8), chemokines, pro-inflammatory mediators and a variety of cells, which regulate the migration and pulmonary infiltration of neutrophils into the interstitial tissue [34] . ./cache/cord-339272-trd6rkxw.txt ./txt/cord-339272-trd6rkxw.txt
