Effects of HDME (3~30 μmol/kg, p.o.) on total IgG _2a and IgE. Effects of HDME (3~30 μmol/kg, p.o.) on total IgG_2a (A), total IgE (B) and ovalbumin-specific IgE (C) levels in the serum and bronchial alveolar lavage fluid (D, E) of sensitized mice which had received aerosolized methacholine (6.25~50 mg/ml) 2 days after primary allergen challenge. ^# p < 0.05, ^## p < 0.01 and ^### p < 0.001, compared to the non-challenged group. * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01 and *** p < 0.001, compared to the control (vehicle) group. Each value represents the mean ± SEM. The number of mice in each group was 10.
