Fig 7. RAGE deficiency did not affect the survival of mice in staphylococcal sepsis.

Log rank survival curve showing survival rate comparison between WT mice (n = 20) and RAGE^-/- mice (n = 28). The mice were intravenously inoculated with a dose of 6.2–6.6 x 10⁷CFU S. aureus LS-1 strain and the survival was monitored every 8 hours. The pooled results from two sepsis experiments are shown. Statistical evaluations were performed using the log-rank (Mantel-cox) test.
