Viral replication in the hearts of TMEV-infected wild-type C57BL/6 and Jα18 KO mice. The levels of viral RNA in the heart were significantly higher in Jα18 KO mice 4 days p.i. compared with wild-type C57BL/6 mice (*P < 0.05, Mann-Whitney U-test). Viral genome was semi-quantified by real-time PCR using a primer pair for the capsid protein VP2 of TMEV. Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (Gapd) was used as a housekeeping gene for normalization. Each group was composed of 3 to 10 mice/group/time point. N.D., not detectable.
