Neutropenia altered pro-inflammatory cytokine production. Homogenates of extracted wounded tissue from control IgG2a + A. baumannii and 1A8 + A. baumannii mice, 3 and 7 days post-infection were prepared and the supernatants were analyzed for (A) TNF-α, (B) IFN-γ, (C) IL-1β, and (D) IL-6 levels. Bars represent the mean values for seven clinical isolates (each symbol); error bars denote standard deviations. For (A–D), asterisks denote P-value significance (P < 0.05) calculated using student’s t-test analysis. Cytokine quantification was performed thrice with similar results obtained.
