Figure 2

Expression of HERV-W elements in human cell-lines following influenza A/WSN/33 virus infection (A) or serum deprivation (B). CCF-STTG1, 293F and U937 cells infected with influenza A/WSN/33 virus (n = 7-9) were analyzed for HERV-W related transcripts relative to uninfected control cells (n = 7-12). Cells deprived of serum (n = 5-7) were analyzed for HERV-W related transcripts relative to control cells in serum enriched culture media (n = 5-8). Error bars indicate the standard error of the difference between the means of infected or serum deprived cells and corresponding control cells. Statistical significance is indicated by * = p < 0.05, ** = p < 0.01, *** = p < 0.001.
