Cytokine (pg/ml)	Vehicle	LEAS (100 ng/ml)	Vehicle+S. aureus	LEAS (100 ng/ml)+S. aureus
TNF-α	^a	^a	^b	^b
IL-1β	ND	ND	^b	^a

Proteins were determined by ELISA (pg/ml). The results correspond to three independent experiments and show the mean of . Different letters indicate significant differences within the row. ND: not detected.
