Effect of maggot secretions (35 µg/ml) on the production of TNF-α (a), IL-12p40 (b) and IL-10 (c) by monocytes challenged with a range of lipopolysaccharide concentrations as indicated (log-scale). The results are means and SEM of ten to 11 experiments. *p < 0.05 and †p < 0.005 for difference from control-incubated monocytes stimulated with lipopolysaccharides
