Influenza Virus Transmission Is Dependent on Relative Humidity and Temperature
Figure 5
Antiviral and Pro-Inflammatory Responses Are Similar between Guinea Pigs Housed at 5 °C and 20 °C
Levels of the indicated mRNA transcripts present in nasal turbinates of infected guinea pigs housed at 5 °C (black bars) or 20 °C (grey bars) were quantified by real-time PCR of reverse transcribed mRNA. RNA levels were normalized to β-actin and are expressed as fold-induction over mock-infected guinea pig. Error bars represent standard deviation. * indicates a statistically significant (p < 0.05) difference between 5 °C and 20 °C.
