Fig. 1From: Capparis Spinosa L. promotes anti-inflammatory response in vitro through the control of cytokine gene expression in human peripheral blood mononuclear cellsIncreasing doses of Capparis Spinosa aqueous fraction enhanced MTT reduction in human PBMCs. Human PBMCs were cultured for 4 days with or without PHA (5 μg/ml) in the presence of increasing doses of the aqueous fraction or the crud extract of Capparis Spinosa, Panel a: PBMCs without PHA in the presence of different doses of the aqueous phase of C.S. Panel b: PBMCs stimulated with PHA in the presence of different doses of the aqueous fraction of C.S. Panel c: PBMCs without PHA in the presence of different doses of the crude extract of C.S. Panel d: PBMCs stimulated with PHA in the presence of different doses of the crud extract of C.S. Three to five independent experiences were performed. Data were analyzed using the one-way ANOVA test. (*, **, ***) indicate a P value of less than 0.05; 0.01 and 0.001 respectivelyBack to article page
