IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α levels in U937 cells treated with H2O2 (100 µM) and treated or non-treated with astaxanthin (ASTA, 10 µM). Cytokines levels resulted augmented after H2O2 treatment. Co-treatment with ASTA significantly reduced cytokines release, while ASTA alone not affect cytokines released in the culture medium. Values are expressed as pg/mL. Each value represents the mean ± SD of three independent experiments (* p < 0.05 vs. H2O2 treated cells, #p < 0.05 vs. control cells).
