Figure 9From: Enhanced replication of avian-origin H3N2 canine influenza virus in eggs, cell cultures and mice by a two-amino acid insertion in neuraminidase stalk Concentrations of IFN-γ (A) and TNF-α (B) in lungs of mice infected with r-06 ( ) and r-06/NA2 ( ) strains. Concentrations of cytokines were determined via ELISA in lung supernatants taken from different days after infection. The results are expressed in terms of pg/g. *P < 0.05 indicates a significant difference for r-06 group compared with r-06/NA2 group. # P < 0.05, ## P < 0.01, or ### P < 0.005 indicates a significant difference between the infected groups and the PBS control group.Back to article page
