IL-1 receptor-deficient neutrophils have impaired antifungal activity. (A) Fungal biomass was measured by calcofluor white staining following 16 hours of co-culture with neutrophils isolated from the bone marrow of the indicated mouse strains. Results represent the mean ± SD of 6 independent experiments, **p ≤ 0.01, (one-way ANOVA test). (B) ROS production of bone marrow isolated neutrophils of the indicated mouse strains stimulated with PMA as measured by CM-H2DCFDA based assay kit. Results represent the mean ± SD of 2 independent experiments (one-way ANOVA test). (C) IL-17 immunohistochemistry staining (brown) of lungs from wild-type and IL-1R1-/- mice 3 days after infection with A. fumigatus-containing beads. (D) Ex vivo IL-17 production in lungs of the indicated mouse strains infected for 3 days with A. fumigatus beads. Results represent the mean ± SEM of groups of at least 10 mice across 2 experiments, ***p ≤ 0.001, (one-way ANOVA test).
