Figure 1

Impact of the PI3K inhibitor wortmannin on LPS-induced release of CXCL8 and IL-6. Purified human PBMCs were treated with 100 ng/ml LPS in the presence of wortmannin for 16 hrs. CXCL8 (a) and IL-6 (b) were assessed by ELISA and the data normalised to control (LPS stimulation only) for each experiment. The mean ± SEM for each data point from at least 3 independent experiments is shown. Sigmoidal dose response curves were plotted using Prism4 software. 100% of control (LPS-stimulated PBMCs only) represented 15 ng/ml CXCL8 and 30 ng/ml IL-6 respectively.
