Valproic acid decreases IFN-γ serum levels during Listeria monocytogenes infection in vivo. BALB/c mice were treated with VPA (500 mg/Kg) or s.s 15 min before infection with 2.5 × 105 CFU L.m i.p. 24 and 48 hpi the cytokines (A) IFN-γ (***P < 0.001, VPA + L.m vs s.s + L.m groups at 24 and 48 hpi), (B) TNF-α (*P < 0.05, VPA + L.m vs s.s + L.m groups at 48 hpi), (C) IL-12p70 and (D) IL-10 were evaluated in serum by ELISA. (n = 11 per group; N. S., Not Significant). Data are expressed as median and range; Kruskal–Wallis.
