Expression of cell cycle promoter CDK2. CDK2 gene expression in fetal tissues including the heart (HRT), kidney (KID), spleen (SPLN), liver (LVR), lung (LNG), thymus (THY), and loin muscle (MUS) derived from fetuses collected from PRRSV-2 challenged dams at 21 days post-inoculation and classified based on viral load in serum and thymus as uninfected (UNIF, n = 10), high viral load viable (HV-VIA, n = 10) or high viral load meconium stained (HV-MEC, n = 10), or from control fetuses (CON n = 10) collected from gestation day matched non-inoculated control gilts. Fold changes were calculated within tissue relative to the average of the CON group with different superscripts denoting statistical differences (P < 0.05) within a given tissue.
