Cytokine mRNA levels in livers and spleens at baseline (0) and day 3 following Listeria infection (d3) (3 × 105 CFU/mouse). Cytokine mRNA levels were detected by using RPA and quantitated as described in Materials and Methods. At baseline, CD18-ko mice showed elevated IL-1β mRNA level both in liver (0) (a) and spleen (0) (b). After Listeria infection, however, CD18-ko mice displayed reduced cytokine mRNA levels in both organs (d3) in comparison with WT.
