Figure 4: Mice lacking RELMα are more susceptible to bacterial infection.

Figure 4:

(A,B) S. pyogenes (A) or wild-type or staphyloxanthin-deficient (ΔCRTM) Staphylococcus strains (B) were grown to logarithmic phase and applied on a gauze rectangle to the dorsal skin of Retnla−/− or wild-type mice under occlusion for 2 days. CFU were determined in sections of inoculated skin.

(C) S. pyogenes was injected intradermally into the skin of Retnla−/− or wild-type mice. Skin abscesses were removed and CFU were determined. Each symbol represents one mouse. Means±SEM are plotted *P<0.05; ***P<0.001; ns=not significant by Welch’s t-test (A,B) or unpaired t-test (C).
