Fig. 4. HPV16 infectivity in int-1 -sufficient versus -null mice.

Fig. 4

Non-transgenic (syndecan-1-sufficient) and syndecan-1 null mice reproductive tracts (N=6) were challenged with or without 2.5E+06 PVs (HPV16:LucF) as indicated. 48 hours after infection, mouse female reproductive tracts were harvested, protein lysates made, and luciferase assays were carried out to quantify the infectivity. Concentrations of total proteins were measure by Bradford protein assay. The infectivity level (relative luminescence units, RLU / µg) of non-transgenic mice treated with 2.5E+06 PVs was set as 100%. * P = 0.87 (Wilcoxon rank sum test, 2 sided).
