Th2 Regulation of Viral Myocarditis in Mice: Different Roles for TLR3 versus TRIF in Progression to Chronic Disease

Figure 7

TLR3-deficient (TLR3−/−) mice have increased markers of IL-4-driven alternative activation compared to TRIF−/− mice. Markers of alternative activation included arginase-1 (Arg1), chitinase (Ym1), IL-4R, and macrophage mannose receptor (Mrc1) by qRT-PCR. Relative gene expression (RGE) was normalized to hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase 1 (HPRT). Data show the mean ± SEM of 10 mice/group. ** ; *** .
