DC maturation assay. Pulsing of moDCs with ES products before LPS stimulation revealed both AcES and TcES to be capable of preventing the upregulation of MHC-II (A) and CD80 (B). For MHC-II, AcES was exceeding the effect of TcES by causing moDCs to downregulate MHC-II expression compared to medium control. Although ES preparations caused downregulation of CD80 compared to medium control this effect was statistically significant only for AcES without subsequent LPS stimulation. P-values were calculated according to paired t-test (for MHC-II) and Wilcoxon signed rank test (for CD80). Error bars show standard error of mean (SEM). Experiments were repeated six times at two different time points.
