Effect of BLAB on mucosa thickness and infiltration of inflammatory cells in nasal mucosa. A Basic structure and epithelium thickness of mucosa. H-E staining. B Histopathological changes, H-E staining. C Infiltration of inflammatory cells. Giemsa staining. D Goblet cells hyperplasia, PAS staining. Blue arrows indicates damaged cilia; Red arrows indicates dilated blood vessels; Yellow arrows indicates edema in the stroma; Orange arrows indicates eosinophils; Green arrows indicates mast cells; Black arrows indicates goblet cells. Scale bar: 50 μm, × 200 magnification. Five fields of view from each group were used to count inflammatory cells. The values represent the mean ± SE (n = 5/group). Significant differences at ##P < 0.01 compared with the control group. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01 compared with the OVA group
