From: Differential modulation of cytokine, chemokine and Toll like receptor expression in chickens infected with classical and variant infectious bursal disease virus

Figure 7

Relative gene expression of Toll like receptor and adaptor molecule mRNA in IBDV-infected bursa. At PIDs 3, 5 and 7, bursal mononuclear cells were isolated from cIBDV, vIBDV and virus-free control chickens and examined for TLR3 (A), TLR7 (B), TRIF (C), and MyD88 (D) gene expression by qRT-PCR. Results are shown as transcription of the target gene relative to housekeeping gene 28S. The data are expressed as fold change expression in infected chickens over virus-free control. The values represent the mean ± SE of 4 pools of 3 bursa each at designated PID. #Statistically significant differences between control and vIBDV- or cIBDV-infected groups (p < 0.05). *Statistically significant differences between vIBDV- and cIBDV-infected groups (p < 0.05).
