Figure 1. IL-2 complex reduces the viral load of MHV-68 in the lung of CD4 depleted mice.

Figure 1

Mice were depleted of CD4 T cells by antibody 1 day prior to i.n. infection with MHV-68. After 42 days, mice were given 4 daily injections of IL-2 complex or Rat-Ig. The virus titer in the lung of CD4 depleted mice was determined by standard plaque assay at day 46 (A) and day 85 (B). Mice were depleted of CD8+ T cells at the time of IL-2 complex therapy and viral titer was determined (C).
