immune system
• 6 hours after LPS injection, TNF, Il12 and Ifng levels are significantly higher than in controls, but less than in Il10tm1Cgn homozygotes
|
• after 3 subcutaneous injections of LPS, mice show an exaggerated inflammatory response similar to response of complete Il10-deficient mice
• 5 days after flank injection of CpG, mice develop moderate belt-shaped lesions similar to controls with no sign of necrosis or granulocyte infiltration
|
• 6/10 animals died by 2 days post-LPS injection compared to 2/25 controls
