Figure Lengend Snippet: (A, C) Representative ex vivo bioluminescence images of organs dissected from NFκB -luc2 and STAT6 -luc2 reporter mice at (A) 5 hours or (C) 29 days after treatment. Signals are shown using pseudocolors according to the scale bar. Quantification of organ bioluminescence is shown in the bar graphs, representing mean photon emission (photons/s/cm²/sr) ± SEM (n = 6). *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ** p < 0.001 versus LNP (two-way ANOVA, Dunnett’s test).Thym: thymus, LN: inguinal lymph nodes, Dued.: duodenum. (B, D) Cytokine levels in plasma were measured (B) 5 hours after administration or (D) at day 29. Cytokine concentrations are presented as bar graphs ± SEM (n = 3). *p < 0.05, * p < 0.01 versus LNP (one-way ANOVA, Dunnett’s test). (E) Antigen-specific antibodies were measured in plasma at day 29 by ELISA. Bar graphs represent mean absorbance ± SEM (n = 12). ** p < 0.001 versus LNP (two-way ANOVA, Dunnett’s test).
Article Snippet: The concentration of IL-12 in supernatants from BM-DCs was determined by ELISA using the Mouse IL-12/IL-23 p40 Allele-specific DuoSet ELISA kit (R&D Systems, Cat. DY499) following the manufacturer’s instructions.
