Figure 5: Badger macrophage TLR9 expression and response.
From: Badger macrophages fail to produce nitric oxide, a key anti-mycobacterial effector molecule
(a) QRT-PCR was used to measure resting TLR RNA levels in bdMφ. GAPDH was detected at a mean of 3.3 × 105 copies/well. (b) Production of IL1β RNA by badger macrophages stimulated with E. coli DNA (effect of E.coli, p < 0.01, fit line from linear model). GAPDH = 3.1 × 105 copies/well. **p < 0.01.
