Proinflammatory mediator response in IFN I receptor knockout. IFNAR KO and WT mice were infected with RSV and sacrificed at different timepoints of infection to collect BAL for measurements of cytokines (a), chemokines (b), TGF-β (c), and type I and III IFN (d). Data are shown as means ± SD. Significance was determined using repeated-measures ANOVA for (a), (b), and (c), and Student’s t-test for (d); * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, and *** p < 0.001 compared to WT RSV with the exception of 2c, where it indicates a difference between RSV and PBS mice. # p < 0.05 compared to WT RSV. Data are representative of one of two independent experiments, with 4–6 animals/group.
