FIG 11.
Gene expression by purified NKs from the colons of SIV-infected and uninfected rhesus macaques. Purified NKs from the lamina propria of three uninfected and three SIV-infected rhesus macaques were evaluated for the expression of the genes ahr (A), tbx21 (B), il22 (C), ifng (D), and tnfa (E), as determined by real-time reverse transcription PCR. Relative expression of specific genes was normalized based on the global expression of all detected transcripts (Table 2). The horizontal lines indicates the means.
