Serum IL-23p19 and IL-17A levels in R. anatipestifer-infected ducks. Two-week-old ducks were challenged intramuscularly with 5 × 107 CFU of R. anatipestifer serotype 7 in 200 µl phosphate buffer saline (PBS). The uninfected control birds (NC) were administered 200 µl PBS intramuscularly. IL-17A and IL-23p19 levels in serum obtained at 24 h after infection were determined using the duck IL-17A and chicken IL-23 ELISA kits, respectively. COS-7 cells were transiently transfected with duIL-23p19-MYC construct. Cell lysates were collected after 48 h and used as positive control for chicken IL-23 ELISA. The results from one representative experiment of two independent experiments are shown. Data are shown as the mean ± SE (n = 10). *P < 0.05. RA, sera from R. anatipestifer-infected ducks.
