From: Murine gammaherpesvirus-68 expands, but does not activate, CD11b+ gr-1+ splenocytes in vivo
CD11b + Gr-1+ cells from spleens of HV-68 infected animals demonstrated no increase in arginase or iNOS activity. Groups of mice were mock treated (M) or infected with HV-68 (HV-68). During the peak of viral-induced leukocytosis (15 days post-infection) or after viral latency had been established (30 days post-infection), CD11b + Gr-1+ splenocytes were isolated from individual animals. Arginase activity and iNOS production by these cells were determined. Results are presented as means (N = 3) ± standard errors.
