FOXO3 and infection: After sorting for a pure population of GFP+ CD34+ HPCs at 2 days postinfection (dpi), we observed that FOXO3a transcript was significantly increased in TB40EΔmiR-US5-1+UL112-3p compared to wild-type infection (P = 0.0003, Fig. 5B), while BCL2L11 mRNA levels were higher in both TB40EΔmiR-US5-1+UL112-3p (P < 0.0001) and TB40EΔUL7 (P = 0.008) (Fig. 5C).
