Figure 4

Results of competitive multiplex qRT-PCR analysis to investigate temporal changes in the expression levels of transcripts normally associated with cells exhibiting cytotoxicity; granulysin, granzymes A, B and H, and cathepsin C, as indicated, throughout the experiment trials summarised in Table 1. Open circles represent data from naïve sheep; closed triangles represent data from immune ("previously infected") sheep. Significant difference between Nv and Im at same timepoint; *P ≤ 0.05, **P ≤ 0.005, ***P ≤ 0.005; Significant difference between timepoint and day 0 of same group (where available); +P ≤ 0.05, ++P ≤ 0.005, +++P ≤ 0.005 (Mann-Whitney U-test for non-parametric data). NB.- data for granzyme H- model fitting failed in some samples, so n = 5 in some groups as indicated.
