Fig 2. BAL levels of IL-6, INF-λ and MIP-1α are differentially affected by TLR3 and MDA5 deficiency.

Fig 2

Wild type C57BL/6 mice, TLR3-/-, or MDA5-/- mice were administered normal saline vehicle (Veh) or 10–20 μg polyI:C (pIC) for three days. Twenty-four hours later, mice were sacrificed and bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) was performed. BAL levels of IL-6 (A), IFN-lambda (B), and MIP-1α (C) were measured in cell-free supernatants by ELISA. Data are mean ± SD pooled from three independent experiments using both male and female mice. Statistical significance was determined by two-way ANOVA with Tukey’s multiple comparisons post-test analysis. Statistically significant results (p<0.05) are indicated as in the legend to Fig 1.
