TNFα release from infected human THP-1 monocytes in presence of soluble uric acid. Human THP-1 monocytic cells were infected with formalin-fixed bacteria in presence and absence of soluble uric acid (19 mg/dL) and incubated overnight. IL-1β release in the supernatants was quantitated using ELISA method. These data represent the mean of six independent experiments with bars showing the standard error of the mean. KPS: K. pneumoniae sensitive; KPR: K. pneumoniae resistant; SA: S. aureus; MRSA HR: methicillin-resistant S. aureus with high resistance; UA: uric acid; ns: not significant.
