The molecules that depicted significant increases in those mAb treated-mice at 96 h after infection were CXCL1 (KC), CCL2 (MCP-1), CCL3 (MIP-1α), CCL4 (MIP-1β), CXCL2 (MIP-2), CXCL5 (LIX), IL-1α, IL-6, G-CSF, M-CSF, and TNF-α (for all, P < 0.01) and IL-1β, IL-15, IL-10, and LIF (for all, P < 0.05). This evidence concerns the gene CSF3 and infection.
