After exposure to CS medium, human monocyte-derived macrophages produce IL-8. a) Macrophages were stimulated overnight with different concentrations of CS medium. Cytometric Bead Array assay was performed to quantify cytokine secretion. Representative dot plots of #1. IL-8, #2. IL-1β, #3. IL-6, #4. IL-10, #5. TNF-α, and #6. IL-12. b) Cells were stimulated with CS medium (OD = 0.03) for 5 h in the presence of GolgiStop™. The cells were stained for intracellular IL-8 expression. The result is a representative of five experiments conducted with different human monocyte-derived macrophage preparations that had similar results.
