Modeling In Vitro Cellular Responses to Silver Nanoparticles

Table 3

Optimized values of parameters for MDM in vitro cultures (with reference for initial estimate).

Proliferative index	0.23	[39]
Apoptotic index	0.11	[39]
TNF production rate*	nmol/min	[10]
IL-6 production rate*	nmol/min	[10]
IL-8 production rate*	nmol/min	[10]
IL-10 production rate*	nmol/min	[40]

Cytokine production rates represent the rate for cells.
