From: Defective IL-17- and IL-22-dependent mucosal host response to Candida albicans determines susceptibility to oral candidiasis in mice expressing the HIV-1 transgene

Figure 6

Expression levels of Defb3 , S100a8, Ccl20, Il17 and Il22 genes in tongue tissue. Tg mice were treated or not with the combination of IL-17 and IL-22 on days 1, 3 and 5 after oral inoculation with C. albicans, and RNA was extracted from tongue tissue on day 7. Ccl2 did not display significant differences of expression under any of the experimental conditions (data not shown). Bars represent the mean ± standard error range of significantly (p < 0.05) up-regulated genes, compared to control uninfected non-Tg mice. Data are from 5 mice.
