RANTES protein concentration and mRNA expression were significantly increased at 72 h after infection (mean protein concentration: 3.5 ± 1.4 pg/mL for 0.001 MOI, 10.8 ± 4.6 pg/mL for 0.01 MOI and 61.5 ± 18.4 pg/mL for 0.1 MOI as compared to 2.4 ± 1.3 pg/mL for uninfected cells). The gene discussed is CCL5; the disease is infection.
