Figure 5From: Chemokines are secreted by monocytes following OK-432 (lyophilized Streptococcus pyogenes) stimulationOK-432, LTA or LPS in vitro stimulation of MOs. MOs were stimulated in parallel with OK-432 (0.01 KE/ml), LTA (0.5 μg/ml), LPS (1 μg/ml), or left unstimulated for 24 h. Supernatants were then collected and analyzed using Multiplex (MIP) or ELISA (MCP-1). MIP-1α (Control, OK-432, LPS: n = 9; LTA: n = 7).MIP-1β (Control, OK-432, LPS: n = 10; LTA: n = 8); MCP-1 (Control, OK-432: n = 19; LTA: n = 9; LPS: n = 16).Back to article page
