Figure 5. Cytokines and chemokines secreted by HCECs stimulated with poly(I:C) and cultured with or without DEX or CsA for 24 h. Culture medium was collected 24 hours after poly(I:C) stimulation and analyzed for the presence of IL-6, IL-8, and IFN-β protein by ELISA. The p values were calculated using two-tailed paired-tests, (*p<0.05, **p<0.01, ***p<0.001).
