Detection of RSV and cytokines in the lungs of BALB/c mice. (A) RSV-N and IL-10, IL-12, IFN-γ and β-actin were checked by RT-PCR. Mice were infected with RSV alone or treated with CYP prior to infection. The third group was uninfected (PBS) as control. Animals were sacrificed on day 5, their lungs removed and RNA was isolated and used in RT-PCR assay. (B) Densitometric analysis of the band densities from part A. Relative intensity refers to the ratio of the intensity of each cDNA product to that of β-actin.
