Age- and sex-matched wildtype and Vert-X mice were challenged intravenously with TLR4-specific LPS (E. coli K12, 20 μg) or left unchallenged. 48 h after stimulation, splenic leukocytes were analyzed by flow cytometry. Data represent the mean percentage (± SE) of each cell type that were GFP+ (8 mice/group).

NS, not significant. Results similar to those in naive mice were seen after in vivo challenge with PBS (data not shown).
