From: Immunomodulation of human monocytes following exposure to Lutzomyia intermedia saliva
Effect of L. intermedia SGS on co-stimulatory molecule expression of LPS-stimulated human monocytes infected with L. braziliensis. Monocytes were pre-treated with SGS overnight, stimulated with LPS for 4 h and infected with L. braziliensis for 4 hours. Cells were collected 48 h later and surface molecule expression was analyzed by flow cytometry. Mean fluorescence intensity of expression is shown for each individual tested (*p < 0.05). (n = 8).
