In healthy G. mellonella larvae (control) and those subjected to fungal infection (F24 and F48), the hemolymph concentrations of cytokine-like proteins (IL-1α, IL-1β, IL-2, IL-3, IL-6, IL-7, IL-8, IL-12, IL-13, IL-15, IL-17, IL-19, IFN-γ, TNF-α, TNF-β, GM-CSF, M-CSF, G-CSF) were determined using ELISA tests. The gene discussed is IL3; the disease is fungal infectious disease.
