Figure 2

Concentrations (ng/ml) of IL-1b, IL-6, IL-12, TFNα and IL-10 in plasma of pregnant and non-pregnant women following stimulation of whole blood with E-coli (black dots) or P. Gingivalis (PG) (open dots) bacteria (5*107 bacteria/ml) for 24 hr. *significantly different from E-coli (two-way ANOVA followed by Bonferroni post-tests, p<0.05)). a: significantly different from pregnant women after the same stimulation (two-way ANOVA followed by Bonferroni post-tests, p<0.05).
