Ex-vivo pulmonary cytokine measurements. (a) Interferon (IFN)-γ and (b) interleukin (IL)-13 cytokine concentrations measured from lung homogenates of BALB/c mice infected according to the “early” infection protocol. Data represent min–max values from two individual experiments as measured on day 2 post Bacille Calmette–Guérin (BCG) infection. Groups included naive (striped bars), Nippostrongylus brasiliensis-only (solid bars), BCG-only (clear bars), and co-infected (gray bars) mice. (*P<0.05, **P<0.01, ***P<0.001).
