Figure 4From: The innate immune response of equine bronchial epithelial cells is altered by training Relative mRNA expression of IFN-β, TNF-α, IL-6 and CXCL8 after stimulation of EBEC with TLR ligands. EBEC were stimulated with FSL, Poly(I:C), LPS, Gardiquimod and CpG. The mRNA expression of IFN-β (A), TNF-α (B), IL-6 (C) and CXCL8 (D) was evaluated after 3 and 6 h of incubation. Significant differences (P < 0.05) in mRNA expression are identified with * for differences between non-stimulated cells (NC) and cells stimulated with TLR ligands.Back to article page
