The difference in serum levels of IFN-γ did not reach statistical significance, but results at 7 and 20 days after intravenous inoculation of S aureus indicate, as expected, higher IFN-γ levels in IL-12 p40-intact mice, suggesting a stronger Th1 response in wild-type mice as compared with IL-12 p40-defective mice.
