From: Serum inflammatory profiles in cystic fibrosis mice with and without Bordetella pseudohinzii infection

Figure 2

Anti-inflammatory cytokine concentrations in non-CF (n = 20), CF unexposed (n = 10), and CF Bordetella pseudohinzii exposed (n = 10) mouse serum. Baseline levels of IL-10 and IL-4 are significantly elevated in CF unexposed sera versus Non-CF controls. Following B. pseudohinzii exposure, IL-10 (a) remains elevated compared to non-CF controls (+), but is not significantly different from the unexposed CF mice. IL-4 (b) is significantly reduced in CF exposed mice to near-non-CF levels (+).
