HMPV virulent isolate C2-202 infection inhibits dendritic cell recruitment.

Quantification of flow cytometry analysis on inflammatory cell recruitment following HMPV TN/94-49 and C2-202 infection in a time-course experiment. The number of total recovered cells (a), dendritic cells (b), alveolar macrophages (c), and interstitial macrophages (d) for each time point were shown as mean ±SD from three mice per group. The control group sample were collected at day 5 post infection. The percentage of marker-positive cells in total cells and mean fluorescent intensity (MFI) of MHC-II (e,f) and CD11b (g,h) were also shown as mean ±SD as above. * P0.05, t-test with correction for multiple comparisons.
