Figure 5. PPD-specific IFNγ production is not reduced by L. sigmodontis co-infection.
A, IFNγ production of spleen cells in response to M. tuberculosis PPD and (B), SEB. Cotton rats were infected with L. sigmodontis (L.s.) and/or M. tuberculosis (MTB), or were uninfected. Statistical significance between groups was analyzed by the Kruskal-Wallis test, followed by Dunn's post-hoc multiple comparisons. Shown are representative results from one of two experiments. Single stars show significant differences compared to the uninfected animals. **p<0.01, ***p<0.001.
