Fig. 5

The expression of NKG2A and NKG2D on the hepatic NK cells in E. multilocularis infection. a Representative FACS plots gated on percentage of NKG2A+ in liver NK cells during different time points. b The percentage of NKG2A+ in liver NK cells after infection. c QRT-PCR analysis for mRNA levels of receptor NKG2A in whole liver tissue at various time points after infection and normalized by comparison to the housekeeping gene GAPDH mRNA. d Representative FACS plots gated on percentage of NKG2D+ in liver NK cells. e The percentage of NKG2D+ in liver NK cells after infection. f QRT-PCR analysis for mRNA levels of receptor NKG2D in whole liver tissue at various time points after infection and normalized by comparison to the housekeeping gene GAPDH mRNA. Data were shown as mean ± standard error (SEM, 3–5 mice per group). *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01; ***p < 0.001, ****p < 0.0001
