Figure 6. Transepithelial resistance is similarly decreased by two different strains of IAV.
NHBEs were grown at an air-liquid interface and infected with (A) A/California/07/2009 or (B) A/PR/8/72 H1N1 IAV at a MOI of 3, and total transepithelial resistance was measured in an Ussing chamber system. Both IAV strains significantly reduced transepithelial resistance 48 hours p.i. Scatter plots, n = 10, with mean ± SEM. Data were analyzed by 1-way ANOVA and post hoc Tukey test for multiple comparisons. *P < 0.0001 compared with noninfected controls.
