Decreased Expression of CD14 in MSU-Mediated Inflammation May Be Associated with Spontaneous Remission of Acute Gout

Figure 4

Decreased sCD14 in supernatants of PBMCs stimulated with MSU treatment. PBMCs from healthy volunteers were stimulated with PBS, MSU (30 μg/mL, 100 μg/mL, and 300 μg/mL) (a), and LPS (0.1 μg/mL, 1 μg/mL, and 10 μg/mL) (b). After 16 h, the culture supernatants were harvested and subjected to ELISA analysis. Data from three independent experiments are presented as . The unpaired Student t-test was used to calculate the significance.
