Fig. 4From: Streptococcal M1 protein induces hyporesponsiveness and cytokine release from human arteries in a fibrinogen-dependent manner: a translational studyInterleukin (IL)-8 accumulation after incubation of human omental arteries with and without plasma in the presence of M1 protein and LPS (50 EU mL-1). The presence of plasma caused a statistically significantly greater IL-8 accumulation induced by LPS (*, P = 0.002) and M1 protein at 1 μg mL− 1 (*, P = 0.002). Two way repeated measurement ANOVA for factors plasma and incubation. Values are means ± SE (n = 6)Back to article page
