Amyloid-beta (Aβ) peptide does not induce T cell cytokine secretion from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of aged and young subjects. PBMCs from aged and young subjects were stimulated with Aβ42 peptide (pep) for 6 days. Bar graphs depict the level of the cytokines tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interferon (IFN)-γ, interleukin (IL)-17, and IL-10 in the supernatants after 6 days as determined by specific ELISA. Results are shown as mean ± SEM of 6 different aged and 6 different young subjects. p values are based on two-tailed, parametric paired t tests with 95% confidence interval. Comparison of stimulated DCs in each group was performed against the control of the same age group. fib fibril
