Mannose-Binding Lectin Binds to Amyloid Protein and Modulates Inflammation
Figure 5
Cytokine release from macrophages in response to Aβ40, Aβ42, IAV, or SA. Sera from wild type (WT, MBL sufficient) or MBL null (MBL deficient) mice were incubated with peritoneal macrophages in the presence of the ligand indicated by the bar graph legend, as described in section 2. Assays were performed in duplicate. IL-6 and TNF-α in the culture supernatant are expressed as pg/mL ± SEM. Comparing MBL null versus WT responses: * and ***.
