Data are represented as percent control. Control values were derived from CD14 cells cultured for 5 days in control media consisting of 10% FCS in RPMI 1640 medium.
ND indicates not determined.
HS5 CM (conditioned medium) was diluted with an equal volume of fresh medium for use in culturing CD14+ cells. Concentrations of the cytokines in HS5 CM were: IL-1β, 0.25 ng/mL; MCP-1, 0.5 ng/mL; M-CSF, 0.25 ng/mL; and IL-6, 250 ng/mL. CD14 cells were harvested for RNA and supernatants collected for protein detection after 5 days of culture.
