TABLE 4.
Effect of IL-1β on cell growth of GC cell linesa
| Cell line | IL-1β (U/ml) | No. of cells (104/well) |
|---|---|---|
| TMK-1b | 10 | 26.90 ± 1.45 |
| 0 | 13.60 ± 1.61 | |
| MKN-1 | 10 | 6.73 ± 0.37 |
| 0 | 7.40 ± 0.36 | |
| MKN-7 | 10 | 4.37 ± 0.18 |
| 0 | 5.26 ± 0.20 |
a
The cells were cultured with or without IL-1β antigen for 6 days, and the cell numbers were counted. The data represent the average ± standard error of three independent experiments.
b
The culture of TMK-1 was examined in three separate experiments. The values were significantly different from that of the control (P < 0.01 after 7 days by the Student t test).
