Figure 2. Induction of predominant Th2 cytokine responses in food allergy mice.

IL-4, IL-5 and IFN-γ cytokine mRNA expression in the spleen (A) and proximal colon (B) from naïve mice and FA mice were measured by real-time PCR. Relative mRNA levels of cytokines were normalized to GAPDH expression. Data are expressed as means ±SE. *P<0.05, **P<0.01 vs. naïve mice (n = 4–8 mice per group).
