Potent peptidoglycan (PGN) -stimulated production of early-response cytokines from cord blood mononuclear cells (CBMC). The CBMC (n = 20) or peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC; n = 10) were stimulated with 1 μg/ml PGN for 24 hr and culture supernatants were analysed by cytometric bead array for (a) interleukin-6 (IL-6), IL-8 and IL-10, and (b) tumour necrosis factor (TNF) and IL-1β. Cytokine levels are shown in pg/ml, boxes cover 50% of the values between the 25th and the 75th percentiles, and whiskers extend to the 10th and 90th percentiles. Raw data are shown excluding outliers and extremes. The Mann–Whitney U-test was used to evaluate differences between groups.
