| PKO | 4.5 log10∗ | 6.1 log10∗∗ |
| MAIDS | 4.3 log10∗ | 5.1 log10∗∗ |
a
Mean titers of three to five whole eyes collected at 6 days after subretinal MCMV inoculation.
b
Mean titers of five whole livers collected at 5 days after intraperitoneal MCMV inoculation.
c
∗, statistically different from eyes of normal and gld mice (P < 0.05); ∗∗, statistically different from livers of normal and gld mice (P < 0.05).
