Fig 5.
Numbers of bacteria in the lungs of wild-type and IL-17A/F-deficient mice (BALB/c background) infected with L. pneumophila. Bacteria were counted at 1, 2, 4, and 7 days after inoculation of 105 CFU of L. pneumophila. *, P < 0.01 for a comparison between Il17a−/− Il17f−/− (A/F*) and wild-type (WT) mice. Bars indicate mean ± SE (n = 6/group). Results are representative of two independent experiments.
