Cytokine levels and IgE levels in OVA-challenged mice. a RNA was extracted from lung tissue from OVA-challenged mice fed with PBS or WGP. Il4, Il5, Il13, Ifng, Il17 and Foxp3 mRNA levels were analyzed by Real Time qPCR. Graphs display mean ± SEM from 3 independent experiments, n = 14–15/group. b Cytokine levels were measured in BALF by ELISA. Graphs display mean ± SEM from 3 independent experiments, n=12–15/group. a–b *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001 (Student's t test). c Total IgE and OVA-specific IgE levels were measured in the serum by ELISA. Graph displays mean ± SEM from 5 independent experiments, n=23–25/group
