Gent (Takara Bio, Dalian, China), and RNA purification was performed by Trizol protocol. First-strand complimentary DNA (cDNA) was synthesized from total RNA according to the RNA PCR kit (Promega, Madison, WI), following the manufacturer’s protocol. Reverse transcription was performed using 1 mg of total RNA in 5.9 ml of the following solution: 2.0 ml 106RT buffer, 2 ml 106RT Random Primer, 0.8 ml 256dNTP, 1.0 ml Multiscribe Reverse Transcriptase, 0.1 ml RNase inhibitor, and the addition of nuclearfree water 1676428 to final volume of 20 ml. Reaction system was run at 25uC for 10 min, 37uC for 120 min and 85uC for 5 min. Primers for TNF-a (NM_013693.2), connective tissue growth factor (CTGF, NM_010217.2), transforming growth factor b1 (TGFb1, NM_011577.1) and b-actin (NM_007393.3) were designed using Primer Express software from Applied Biosystems and the sequences are available upon request. PCR reactions were carried out in a 25 ml reaction buffer that included 12.5 ml SYBR GREEN, 0.25 ml of forward primer, 0.25 ml of reverse primer, 2 ml of cDNA, and 10 ml ddH2O and performed in triplicate for each sample in the BIO-RAD CFX96 Real-Time PCR system. The fluorescence intensity of each sample was measured at each temperature change to monitor amplification of the target gene. The comparative cycle time (CT) method was used to determine fold differences between Nafarelin samples. 25837696 The comparative CT methodNeonatal Overfeeding Increases Recruitment of Inflammatory Cells into AirwayThe cell number was counted in BALF from both SL and NL mice on P21 and P150, and the data were shown in Figure 3. Generally, total cell number in BALF from P150 mice was higher than P21 mice in both SL and NL groups. Of note, the total cell number in BALF from the SL group was 6 and 5-fold higher than the NL group on P21 (Figure 3A) and P150 (Figure 3B), respectively. The number of macrophages and lymphocytes in BALF from SL mice was significantly higher than NL mice at the two tested time points. More neutrophils were observed in the SL group on P150, but not on P21. In addition, we observed very few eosinophils in BALF from SL mice on P150, which was almost totally undetected on P21 (Figure 3C and 3D). We then further confirmed increased airway inflammation in neonatal mice via lung histological analysis. Lung tissues from NL and SL mice on both P21 and P150 were examined with H E staining. On P21, there was no 
significant difference of lung inflammation either in peri-bronchiolar areas or alveolar septum in both SL and NL mice (Figure 4A); On P150, H E stainingNeonatal Overfeeding and Airway ResponsivenessFigure 1.

Body weight was measured in normal litters (NL) (#; n = 12) and small litters (SL) ( ; n = 12) MedChemExpress Dimethylenastron groups during lactation (A) and after weaning (B); Blood leptin was measured on P150 using RIA (C). Intraperitoneal glucose tolerance test (GTT, D) was performed on P120, and blood glucose levels were evaluated at 0 (fasting), 15, 30, 60 and 120 minutes after glucose loading of NL(#, n = 6) and SL( , n = 6), corresponding AUC from 0 to 120 min, with the glucose level at 0 min considered as the baseline (E).
