Figure 3. Regulation of cytokine production with Cortisol/Dexamethasone on TLR3 or TLR4 stimulated Primary Human Corneal Fibroblasts (PHKF).

Figure 3

Both cortisol (▪, black square) and dexamethasone (▪, gray square) reduced cytokines: VEGF, CCL5, IFN-γ, CXCL-10, IL-8 and GCSF (B) after either or both TLR 3 and 4 stimulation of PHKF. (Values =  Mean+SE, normalising to No Cortisol/Dexamethasone (□, white square) for each treatment n = 3; Statistical analysis 2-way ANOVA with Bonferroni post-test; *p<0.05, **p<0.01, ***p<0.001).
