FIG. 4.
Interleukin-8 (IL-8) secretion induced by H. pylori strains. Chinese H. pylori strains were cocultured with AGS cells for 6 h before the amount of secreted interleukin-8 was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The results are expressed as percentages of the maximal value (for strain Z37). Errors bars represent standard errors of the means.
