Fig. 8. Analyses of pigr and PIGRL transcripts after infection.
RT-qPCR was employed to quantify the relative levels of pigr and PIGRL transcripts during the initial stages of infection. Adult zebrafish were infected with either (a-c) Streptococcus iniae or (d-f) Snakehead rhabdovirus or mock infected. Expression analyses was conducted from (a, d) intestine, (b, e) spleen and (c, f) kidney. RNA samples were evaluated from 2 h to 24 h after infection. Transcript levels were normalized to eef1a1l1 by the ΔΔCt method (Livak and Schmittgen 2001). Analyses of pigrl1.4 are excluded for SHRV infections as expression was not reliably detected.
