Anti-inflammatory activity of probiotic Bifidobacterium: Enhancement of IL-10 production in peripheral blood mononuclear cells from ulcerative colitis patients and inhibition of IL-8 secretion in HT-29 cells

Figure 3 Effects of probiotic bifidobacteria-derived CMs on IL-8 production in HT-29 cells. HT-29 cells were stimulated with TNF-α in the absence or presence of graded dilutions of CMs. CMs were prepared as described in the Methods. Other experimental conditions are shown in Figure 2. ^aP < 0.05, ^bP < 0.01 vs control.
