BMDCs from aged mice produce lower levels of cytokine upon GLA-SE stimulation and lung homogenates from aged mice have severely impaired cytokine-producing ability. (A) BMDCs and (B) lung homogenates from young and aged CB6F1 mice were stimulated with 10-fold dilutions of GLA-SE (2, 20, 200, 2, and 20 µg/ml) or SE (0.00008, 0.0008, 0.008, 0.08, and 0.8%) overnight, followed by harvesting the supernatants the next day for cytokine analysis. Open triangles indicate the concentration from highest (left) to the lowest (right). 10 ng/ml lipid A 506 was used as positive control. Cells from young mice were color-coded as blue; cells from aged mice were color-coded as red. Results are represented as the mean ± SEM. p-values are denoted as follows: * indicates < 0.05; ** indicates < 0.01; *** indicates < 0.001; **** indicates < 0.0001. BMDC, bone marrow dendritic cells.
