Cytokine production by human PBMCs pre-incubated with laminarin. Human PBMCs were pre-incubated 60 min with 200 μg/mL laminarin before challenged for 24 h with either live or HK yeast cells, supernatant were collected and used to quantify the cytokine levels. Strains used are C. albicans SC5314, C. parapsilosis sensu stricto SZMC 8110, C. orthopsilosis SZMC 1545, and C. metapsilosis SZMC 1548. ∗P < 0.05, when compared with untreated cells from the same organism.
