Dendritic cell‐specific intercellular adhesion molecule 3‐grabbing non‐integrin 1 (DC‐SIGN) regulates inflammatory cytokine expression. Negative control (NC) or DC‐SIGN siRNAs were transfected into human kidney 2 (HK‐2) cells and treated with or without lipopolysaccharide (LPS) (100 ng/ml) for 12 h. Enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was utilized to measure the interleukin (IL)‐6 and tumour necrosis factor (TNF)‐α secretion. The data are expressed as the mean ± standard deviation (s.d.) from three independent tests. *P < 0·05; **P < 0·01 compared with HK‐2 cells not treated with LPS in the same group, ##P < 0·01 compared with the NC in the same group.
