Cellular/Extracellular Concentration Ratios Observed in Resting Human Polymorphonuclear Leukocytes

Extracellular Concentration (μg/ml) Cellular/Extracellular for Minocycline Cellular/Extracellular for Doxycycline Cellular/Extracellular for Tetracycline
2 84.7 ± 8.9 8.06 ± 5.60 14.0 ± 1.4*
5 65.5 ± 3.9 6.39 ± 1.46 5.49 ± 0.69
10 64.2 ± 6.7 7.55 ± 1.24 1.81 ± 0.49
20 60.6 ± 6.6 9.84 ± 1.34 2.72 ± 0.61

Results are expressed as the mean of four determinations ± SEM. Within each column, the differences in the mean values are greater than would be expected by chance (P <0.05; ANOVA).

*

Values that are significantly different from other means in the same column (P <0.05; Tukey test).
