Cytokine profiles of splenocytes from mice inoculated with buffer control, AdEmpty control, AdSalp15, AdIsac, or pooled AdSalps at 48 h post stimulation with ConA. AdSalp15 levels were similar to that of the buffer control. AdIsac, however, demonstrated a large and statistically significant increase in IFN-γ, TNF-α, and IL-2 as compared to controls. A statistically significant increase in IFN-γ and TNF–α was observed in pooled AdSalps as compared to controls.
