Figure 3

Cytokine expression profiles for each group of animals infected with H. suis strains HS1-9 and H. pylori strains SS1 or pMSS1. Shown are the mean fold changes of mRNA expression in HS1-HS9- and SS1- or pMSS1-infected BALB/c and C57BL/6 mice for IL-1β (A), IL-4 (B), IL-6 (C), IL-10 (D) and IL-17 (E). The mean fold change in the relevant uninfected control groups is equal to 1. An * indicates a significant upregulation of mRNA expression compared to uninfected control mice (p < 0.05). An ** indicates a significant upregulation of mRNA expression compared to uninfected control mice (p < 0.0056, i.e. the new cut-off p value obtained after Bonferroni correction for multiple comparisons).
