Tumor Necrosis Factor-α Promotes Myocarditis in Female Mice Infected with Coxsackievirus B3 Through Upregulation of CD1d on Hematopoietic Cells

Coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) induces cardiac inflammation (myocarditis) in male but not female C57BL/6 mice. Protection of females correlates with reduced expression of TNF-α and IL-1β at both the mRNA and protein levels in the heart. Treatment of females with 300 ng/mouse of recombinant TNF-α on days +...
