Fig. 7From: Inflammation and emphysema in cigarette smoke-exposed mice when instilled with poly (I:C) or infected with influenza A or respiratory syncytial virusesIAV or RSV infections induce IL-17 in cigarette smoke-injured lung. C57BL/6 mice were exposed for 4 weeks to FA or CS and infected with Vehicle or IAV or RSV. RNA was isolated from lung tissues and IL17 RT2 Profile PCR array was performed for IL-17 regulated genes at day 4 p.i. All samples were normalized to mouse GAPDH RNA levels. Heat map blocks represent average RNA levels N = 6 mice per group and are normalized to FA samplesBack to article page
