Influence of the estrous cycle on cervico-vaginal IgG levels.

<p>Vaginal washings were taken from naïve adult female C57BL/6 mice (8–12 weeks old) throughout the course of the estrous cycle. Samples were analyzed by mouse IgG-specific ELISA. Each graphic symbol represents one experimental animal. Data are derived from three independent experiments (n = 4) and were analyzed using one-way ANOVA with post-test (Tukey's). The mean±SEM is shown (*, p≤0.05; **, p≤0.01).
