Mice were primed by two intranasal immunizations and rested for 15 days before being killed. Single-cell suspensions were prepared from spleens and mesenteric lymph nodes and cultured in the presence or absence of T. gondii antigen (15 μg/ml). Amounts released were calculated with recombinant cytokine. Values for IL-2 and IFN-γ were taken from samples at 48 and 96 h, respectively. The results are representative of at least three experiments. Boldface indicates no significant concentration.
