Figure 3

(A–B) Real-time PCR detection of the production of mcp-2/ccl8 mRNA in murine macrophage cell line Raw264.7 infected with either M. bovis BCG (A) or M. tuberculosis H37Rv (B) at MOI 5 for indicated times; (C–D) Real-time PCR detection of the production of mcp-2/ccl8 mRNA in primary peritoneal macrophages treated with either M. bovis BCG (C) or M. tuberculosis H37Rv (D) at MOI 5 for indicated times; (E–F) ELISA of MCP-2/CCL8 protein in THP-1, a human acute monocytic leukemia cell line, infected with either M. bovis BCG (E) or M. tuberculosis H37Rv (F) at MOI 5 for indicated times. (G–H) ELISA of MCP-2/CCL8 protein in human PBMC monocyte-derived macrophages (MDM) infected with either M. bovis BCG (G) or M. tuberculosis H37Rv (H) at MOI 5 for indicated times. Data shown are representative of at least three independent experiments. **, p<0.001, *, p<0.05.
