WT and Ifit1−/− mice (n = 9) were infected with 104 EID50 of IAV-Cal, and 3, 6, or 9 days after infection, lungs were harvested, homogenized, and analyzed by the Bio-Plex Pro 23-plex mouse cytokine and chemokine assay. Data were pooled from three independent experiments. ND, levels were below the threshold of detection. No significant differences (P > 0.08) were observed between WT and Ifit1−/− mice for any of the cytokines or chemokines for any day tested.
