Oral menthol treatment reduces pancreatic CVB titers and tissue destruction in CVB-infected mice- The 10-week-old C57BL/6 male mice were treated with 100 mg/kg menthol or equivalent volume vehicle each day for 2 days via oral gavage. At the same time as the first menthol dose, mice were infected IP with 107 plaque forming units (PFU) EGFP-CVB. A total of 2 days post-infection (PI), mice were sacrificed, and pancreata were assessed. (A) Pancreatic viral titers as measured by plaque assays on pancreatic homogenates. (** p < 0.01; Student’s t-test, n = 6–7). (B) Hematoxylin and eosin staining on representative pancreas sections. Scale bars represent 150 µm.
