Proinflammatory cytokine expression levels in J774A.1 cells at 24 hours after phagocytosis. Summarised results showing the mRNA expression of proinflammatory cytokines in J774A.1 cells at 24 hours after phagocytosis of E. coli (EC), ATCC 19606 (AB), and 3 representative strains R1, R3, and R5. The mRNA levels of (a) TNF-α, (b) IL-1β, (c) IL-6, (d) MIP-2, and (e) IL-10 were analysed by real-time PCR. Bar graph data represent the mean ± SEM and are compiled from 2 independent experiments (n = 3 for each experiment). Asterisks indicate statistically significant differences (**P < 0.01; *P < 0.05; Student’s t-test).
