Table 3. Effect on monokine production in human PBMC.

IL-12 p70 IC50, nM IL-12 p70 efficacy, % TNF-α IC50, nM TNF-α efficacy, %
DEX 3.2 89 3.1 97
PRED 7.9 84 11 93
ZK 216348 52 89 89 63

The effect of ZK 216348 on secretion of IL-12 p70 and TNF-α 24 h after LPS stimulation of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells was determined in comparison to the effect of standard GCs. Efficacy is expressed as absolute maximal inhibition of LPS-induced increase in cytokine release. Single values are shown.
