Gene expression analysis of the local immune response after i.m. DNA vaccination against spring viremia of carp virus (SVCV). Carp were injected with 0.1 µg/g of either pcDNA3 or pcDNA3-SVCV-G. Muscle tissue at the site of injection was excised at 3 and 5 days postinjection (dpi). Expression of the indicated immune-relevant genes was normalized against the housekeeping gene s11 of the ribosomal subunit 40S and expressed relative to the unhandled control at time point 0 h. Asterisks (*) indicate significant differences (p < 0.05) between the pcDNA3 and pcDNA3-SVCV-G group at the respective time point as assessed by one-way ANOVA, followed by a Tukey post hoc test. Bars indicate average and SD of n = 3 fish per time point.
