Plasma cytokine profile after CLP. WT (n = 6 to 8) and CETPTg (n = 6 to 8) mice were challenged with CLP. Plasma levels of IL-6 (A), IL-10 (B), MCP-1 (C), MIP-2 (D), IL-1β (E), TNFα (F), and IFNγ (G) were measured using Luminex assay. Data are means ± SD. P-values for significant differences (P < 0.05) are shown above corresponding brackets on each panel; Kruskal-Wallis followed by Dunn's multiple comparisons test.
