Figure 3. Cytokine/chemokine expression in mouse plasma and liver 3 days post Lm infection.
(A) WT and MSKO mice were infected intraperitoneally with Lm (strain 10403S) for 3 days. Plasma cytokine and chemokine concentrations measured by ELISA (left) and Bioplex assay (right), respectively, 3 days after infection. (B) Liver cytokine/chemokine concentrations were quantified by Bioplex assay. Liver protein concentrations were measured by BCA protein assay. Data are expressed as mean ± SD. * P<0.05, ** P<0.01, and *** P<0.001.
