Data are expressed as median (upper line, italic) and range (lower line, normal text). n=7 for all conditions. PGN and LTA were applied at 10 μg/mL, LPS at 100 ng/mL, CpG at 1 μM and TNF at 10 ng/mL. Statistical analysis was by Friedman's test and Dunn's post hoc test. *p<0.05, **p<0.01, ***p<0.001 relative to basal levels, by Dunn's post hoc test.
†TNF was used as a positive control; TNF was not measured in TNF-stimulated cells.
IL, interleukin; LPS, lipopolysaccharide; LTA, lipoteichoic acid; TNF, tumour necrosis factor; PGN, peptidoglycan.
