Relative expression of IL-32 in type II alveolar cells in normal and MAC-infected lung samples. Immunohistochemical staining of IL-32 in type II alveolar cells (arrows) of representative (A) normal and (B and C) two MAC-diseased lungs. (D) Quantification of IL-32 staining of type II alveolar cells following morphometric analysis, normalized to the alveolar surface area. Mean Vv/Sv ± SEM for 10 normal lungs = 0.0607 ± 0.0105. Mean Vv/Sv ± SEM for 11 MAC lung samples = 0.0917 ± 0.0138. Vv/Sv denotes the ratio of the volume density to the surface density.
