Fig. 5. TNFR signaling in donor kidneys is not required for transcriptional reactivation of ie gene expression.
RNA extracted from control (C) and transplanted (G) kidneys of eight Δm157 latently infected B6;129S-Tnfrsflatm1ImxTnfrsf1btm1Imx mice transplanted into allogeneic BALB/c recipients was analyzed by RT-PCR and Southern blot hybridization for expression of ie-1 RNA. R, RNA size marker; D, DNA size marker.
