Mice were implanted with either a morphine pellet or a placebo pellet 48 hours before i.p. infection with a 0.1 LD50 dose (C57BL/6 mice; A. baumannii, strain 5798, 6.5 × 105 CFU; Panel A) or a 0.4 LD50 dose (C3HeB/FeJ mice; A. baumannii, strain 4502, 1.7 × 106 CFU; Panel B) of A. baumannii. Plasma was collected at 8 hours post-infection for analysis by Cytometric Bead Array. Points represent individual animals. Lines are median values for cytokine levels.
