We did not observe any major differences in serum cytokine levels between WT and Dectin-2 KO mice following infection with these Candida spp., however, Dectin-2 KO mice displayed a subtle elevation in serum IL-6 levels 1-week post infection with C. albicans or C. tropicalis (Figure 5B). The gene discussed is CLEC6A; the disease is infection.
