Figure 2. Airway inflammation induced by B. tropicalis allergens plus eLPS presented a TH1/TH17 pattern of cytokine production.

Figure 2

C57BL/6 (WT) mice were sensitized twice with Bt or Bt containing eLPS co-adsorbed to alum and challenged twice with Bt. Experiments were performed 24 h after the last Bt challenge. Control group consisted of non-manipulated animals. Cytokine IL-4 (A), IL-5 (B), IL-13 (C), IFN-γ (D), IL-17 (E), and VEGF (F) production BAL fluid were measure by ELISA. *Significant difference (p<0.05) when compared with control group. #Significant difference (p<0.05) when compared with Bt group.
