In the plasma, we found significant increases in TNF‐α, IL‐6, and IL‐12 between 60 and 180 min in all animals who received LPS, which is similar to the cytokine profiles in other porcine models of ARDS shown by us and others (Stenlo et al., 2020; Wyns et al., 2015). The gene discussed is TNF; the disease is acute respiratory distress syndrome.
