Researchers looked at immune reactions in the exposed mice after one,
three, and seven days. They found that after one day, the mouse's blood
contained many inflammation-inducing molecules. These inflammatory
molecules were not localized to anywhere in particular, indicating that
the blood was rejecting the toxin and the immune system was sending out
molecules to mark it for immune attack. By the third day, the level of
inflammatory agents in the blood had significantly increased, further
indicating that the toxin was creating a negative effect in the mice,
even at a small dose.
