Figure 2. Expression of type I IFN, IFN responsive genes and proinflammatory cytokine genes is upregulated in the submandibular glands of poly(I:C) treated mice.

Figure 2

Expression levels of IFN-β1, Mx1, PRKR, IFI44, IL-6, TNF-α, IL-1β, and CCL5 in submandibular glands of poly(I:C) (n=5) and PBS (n=5) treated mice were determined by real time PCR using Taqman gene expression assays. Each data point represents RNA expression in one mouse and data are represented as mean duplicate relative expression calculated by the 2(−Delta Delta C(T)) method. Numbers denoted with ‘x’ represent fold increase in RNA expression in poly(I:C) treated mice in comparison with PBS treated mice. Also shown are p values determined using non parametric student’s t-test. NS; not significant.
