Data are presented as mean ± standard error (pg/mL). The lung tissues of mice at the time of death or pneumococcal pneumonia or those of mice without pneumococcal pneumonia at day 7 were homogenized with 2 mL of PBS and frozen at −20°C for subsequent cytokine analysis. IL-17 levels in lung homogenates were determined by ELISA methods. |
