From: Duplex real-time reverse transcriptase PCR to determine cytokine mRNA expression in a hamster model of New World cutaneous leishmaniasis

Figure 4

Relative mRNA expression levels in lymph node from uninfected and 7-day L. panamensis infected hamsters. Experiments were conducted as described for Figure 2. Results are expressed as a relative fold difference between experimental samples and BHK cells to which the value of 1 was arbitrarily assigned. For panels A, B, D, E, F, G, H and L the mean + SD are represented and statistical analysis utilized the unpaired t test. Data presented in panels C, I, J and K were not normally distributed so are shown as the median + interquartile range and the statistical analysis utilized the nonparametric Mann Whitney test. Each uninfected hamster is represented by a filled circle, and each infected hamster is represented by a filled square.
