Pendrin-deficiency does not affect allergen-induced OVA-specific IgE, epithelial mucus content or lung expression of Th2 cytokine mRNAs. a, Serum OVA-specific IgE in saline- and OVA-challenged control and pendrin-deficient (Slc26a4-/-) mice. OVA-specific IgE was not detectable in the saline challenged groups. b, Mucus content, represented as the volume of mucus divided by the total volume of airway epithelial cells. Results are means and error bars represent s.e.m., n = 6-8 mice per group. c, Gene transcript expression, measured by quantitative RT-PCR with fold differences normalized to saline-challenged control mice (“Control / Saline”), n = 4 mice per group. ** p < 0.01 vs. Control / Saline.
