Figure 5From: Bifidobacterium strains suppress in vitro the pro-inflammatory milieu triggered by the large intestinal microbiota of coeliac patientsCytokine production by peripheral blood mononuclear cells stimulated with live bacteria of Bifidobacterium longum ES1 and B. bifidum ES2 in the presence or absence of lactacystin. Panel A, TNF-α production; Panel B, IFN-γ production; Panel C, IL-10 production. Results are expressed as mean ± SD of duplicate measures determined in four independent experiments. Significant differences between means were established by ANOVA with post hoc Fisher's least significant difference (LSD) test at P < 0.05. NS, not significant.Back to article page
