Cytokine levels in PBMCs from healthy patients in three experimental conditions.

IL1-β, TNF-α and IL-6 levels measured by the 3-plex Luminex xMAP® assay in cell lysates (INTRA) and in culture media (EXTRA) after pre-treatment of PBMCs with 1 μM C16 versus its vehicle (DMSO) in three experimental conditions during 48h: serum medium, serum-free medium and serum-free medium with 20 μM Aβ42. Cytokine levels were expressed in pg/mg protein for INTRA and in pg/mL for EXTRA samples. Results are mean ± SEM.
