Production of IFN-γ by 4O1/C8 that was cocultured with recombinant m8Δ-exposed FPM1V.EFGFP/8R cells. FPM1V.EFGFP/8R cells were exposed to m8Δ/RT1AlSCTax180L, m8Δ/RT1AlSCNLEnv371L, or PBS for 2 hrs at indicated MOI. After extensive wash, the cells were cocultivated with 4O1/C8 for 2 days. Production of IFN-γ in the supernatants of mixed culture was measured by ELISA. The data represent the mean ± SD of triplicate wells. Asterisks indicate statistical significance ( ) compared to the mock-infected controls.
