Corticosterone levels in mice with neutralized cytokine function. Corticosterone levels in MCMV-infected (5 × 10⁴ PFU/ mouse) (filled bar) or vehicle-injected (striped bar) IL-6–deficient (IL-6–), IFN-γ–deficient (IFN-γ⁻), IL-1ra–treated (IL-1ra) mice or respective control mice (IL-6⁺, IFN-γ⁺, PBS). Treatments were as described in Materials and Methods. Corticosterone levels were measured in serum samples collected from mice under low stress conditions (bled within 4 min of handling) 36 h after infection. Results from one of two to three experiments are shown. Data are means ± SE of three mice per group. **P <0.01.
