Splenocytes from OVA-sensitized mice were stimulated with OVA (200 μg/mL) or plate-coated anti-CD3 mAb for 72 h, and the amount of IL-4, IL-5, and IFN-γ in the culture supernatant was determined by ELISA. Data are means ± SD for 5 mice in each group. The minimum significant values of these assays were 20 pg/mL of IL-4 and IL-5, and 0.1 ng/mL of IFN-γ. ND = not detectable.
