Helminth coinfection promotes Th2 cytokine expression and production, resulted in upregulation of Alox15 expression in the lung tissue. (a–d) Mediastinal lymph nodes (MLNs) and spleen (Sp) cells were collected from the mice in the presence of P. aeruginosa infection and stimulated in vitro with anti-CD3 mAb. Culture supernatants were collected 72 h later. Cytokine (IL-4 and IL-10) secretion into the culture supernatants was determined by ELISA. (e–h) Total RNA was isolated from the lung tissues. IL-4, IL-10, GATA3 and Alox15 expression was determined using RT-qPCR. Values are the relative expression compared to the naïve mice. The data shown are means ± SD from one of three experiments performed showing similar results. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001, ****P < 0.0001.
