Selective Activation of Human Dendritic Cells by OM-85 through a NF-kB and MAPK Dependent Pathway (original) (raw)
Figure 2
Induction of selected cytokines and chemokines by OM-85 in MoDC.
A) MoDC (106/ml) were stimulated with OM-85 as indicated and with 100 ng/ml LPS (IL-6, BAFF, CCL2, CXCL8 and CXCL6) or 10 ng/ml LPS (CCL3, CCL20 and CCL22) as a positive control. After 24 hours, supernatants were collected and analyzed by ELISA. Ut = untreated. *P<0.05 and **P<0.01 by Dunnett's Multiple Comparison Test. B) Supernatants of MoDC stimulated with OM-85 induce a G-protein-dependent migration of PMN. As a comparison, migration of PMN was elicited with unstimulated supernatants+CXCL8 and PMA. As expected, migration to CXCL8 was inhibited by both 10 nM M3 and 750 ng/ml, Pertussis toxin (P.Tox) while migration to PMA was not. Results are expressed as chemotactic index over migration to supernatants of unstimulated MoDC and represent means+/−SD of three independent Boyden chamber experiments. *P value<0.05 and ** P value<0.01 by Dunnett's Multiple Comparison Test.
