Dexamethasone but not meloxicam significantly reduces levels of Bb-induced cytokines and chemokines in HSC. The anti-inflammatory effect of dexamethasone (Dex) (Ai) and meloxicam (Mel) (Aii) on the levels of CCL2 as induced by live Bb in HSC. The anti-inflammatory effect of dexamethasone (Bi) and meloxicam (Bii) on the levels of IL-6 as induced by live Bb in HSC. The anti-inflammatory effect of dexamethasone (Cii) and meloxicam (Ciii) on the levels of IL-8 as induced by live Bb in HSC. The one-way ANOVA and Tukey’s multiple comparison test was used to evaluate the statistical significance between means and SD of triplicate data sets, *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001
