Figure 3

Lymphocyte proliferation responses induced by H9N2 infection in MHC-defined chickens against homologous and heterologous AI. Groups of chickens received either sham or H9N2 infection. Spleens of individual birds were removed, and lymphocyte proliferation was evaluated using the alamarBlue™ method. Samples were read at 48 hours and the percent alamarBlue™ reduced, as an indicator of proliferation, presented per group. Proliferation by lymphocytes from sham birds against either AI virus was <12 % (data not shown).
