CCL5 suppressed LPS-induced IL-6 and TNF-α production by peripheral blood monocytes from HD and CD patients in remission. (a,b) Peripheral blood monocytes from HD (n = 6) and CD patients (n = 7) were cultured in medium alone for 24 h; then, cells were washed and stimulated with or without CCL5 (pre-CCL5) for 24 h. Subsequently, cells were washed and stimulated with or without LPS. The levels of IL-6 and TNF-α in the supernatants were quantified by ELISA. Mann-Whitney U test was used for the comparisons between HD and CD patients (*p < 0.05, **p < 0.01).
