Suppressive Effect of Hydroquinone, a Benzene Metabolite, on In Vitro Inflammatory Responses Mediated by Macrophages, Monocytes, and Lymphocytes
Figure 9
Effect of hydroquinone on the viablility or proliferation
of splenic and bone marrow-derived lymphocytes induced by Con A and LPS. (a) Splenic
lymphocytes ( cells/mL) were incubated with hydroquinone
under normal culture conditions. (b) Bone
marrow-derived lymphocytes ( cells/mL) were incubated
with hydroquinone in the presence or absence of Con A (1 g/mL) and LPS (10 g/mL). Cell viability or proliferation was
determined by MTT assay. and represent
significant difference as compared to normal or control.
