Upregulation of IL-4/13-inducible genes in the spleens of 28-day infected hamsters. (A) Schematic representation of the IL-4 and IL-13 signaling pathways with notation of IL-4/IL-13-responsive genes found by microarray to be upregulated in the spleens of hamsters at 28 days post-infection. The fold-increase of the gene in the infected tissue is shown in blue in parentheses. (B) Expression of IL-4/IL-13-responsive genes in the spleens of 28-day infected hamsters determined by real time RT-PCR. Data are shown as the mean and standard error of the mean (error bars) of the fold-increase in infected compared to uninfected animals (n = 5 per group). ***p≤0.001.
