Dose-dependent effect of exopolysaccharides (EPS) on cytokine secretion from peritoneal macrophages. TNF-α (a), IL-6 (b), IL-12p40 (c) and IL-10 (d) were analysed by ELISA in supernatants collected from 24 h cultures of peritoneal macrophages (5 × 105 per well) stimulated with indicated concentrations of EPS. Data are mean ± SEM values of three independent experiments. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.005, ***P < 0.001, EPS-treated vs. untreated macrophages.
