Th1/Th2 Polarization in Splenocytes from IL-4 KO Mice

Cellulose
(pg/mg protein)
Pectin
(pg/mg protein)
IL-4 N/D N/D
IL-5 30.1 ± 6.3 26.8 ± 9.0
IL-13 133 ± 28 118 ± 12
IFN-γ 7.8 ± 3.3 4.5 ± 1.1
IL-12 1703 ± 466 891 ± 145
IL-2 22552 ± 4766 9212 ± 2067 *

IL-4 KO mice were fed 10% pectin (pectin) or 5% cellulose (cellulose) for 6 wks. Cytokines were measured from Con A treated splenocytes. Results are expressed in pg/ml/protein, means ± SEM, n=4
