Figure 5.

Normalized expression values (transcripts per million—TPM) for five inflammatory chemokines (CCL4, CCL5, CXCL9, CXCL10, CXCL11), one inflammation and macrophage marker gene (CD68), and an interferon-induced antiviral enzyme (OAS2), recorded in the liver biopsies of the six individual ponies at the three different time points in relation to equine hepacivirus (EqHV) inoculation (day -63, day +13, day +97). TPM values for albumin (ALB) and apolipoprotein A-II (APOA2) were also plotted as reference markers for liver tissue. CP = Control Pony; d = day; VP = Vaccine Pony.
