(A)
Sidt2+/+ and
Sidt2−/− mice were injected i.p
with 50 μg poly(I:C) per 25 g body weight (n=7), and serum
IFNβ measured at 3 h via ELISA. (B)
Sidt2+/+ and
Sidt2−/− mice (n=8) were
injected i.p. with 300 μg poly(A:U) per 25 g body weight and serum
IFNβ measured at 3 h via ELISA. (C)
Sidt2+/+ and
Sidt2−/− mice (n=8) were
injected i.p. with 50 μg poly(I:C) per 25 g body weight and serum
IFNλ measured at 3 h via ELISA (n=8). Data are plotted as mean
± SEM. (D) BMDMs from
Sidt2+/+ and
Sidt2−/− were stimulated with 10
μg/ml poly(I:C) for the indicated times and pIRF3Ser386 and
total IRF3 was assessed via immunoblotting. (E)
Sidt2+/+ and
Sidt2−/− MEFs were transfected
with MAVS-YFP, treated with poly(I:C) for 1 h, and MAVS aggregation assessed via
confocal microscopy. Scale bar = 40 μm. (F)
Individual cells (>150 per condition) were scored for the appearance of
MAVS aggregates. Data is representative of 3 independent experiments and error
bars are plotted as mean ± SEM. *
