Quantification of cytokine and chemokine transcripts from primary chicken ebmryo intestinal cells (CEICs). CEICs were inoculated with C. jejuni strain SC11 (chicken isolate) and HM5040 (human isolate) at a MOI of 100:1, RNA were isolated at various hours post inoculation (p.i.). LPS E. coli 055:B5 (5 μg/ml) and mock inoculation were used as controls. Data are representative of three independent experiments and present as relative to mock inoculations (average ± SD) (see Methods for details).
