  1. Cytokine production from splenocytes after stimulations in vitro. Results are expressed as means ±SD from three independent experiments. IFN-γ levels were measured at 96 h post stimulation; IL-10 and IL-4 were measured at 72 h and 24 h post stimulation, respectively
  2. *Compared with blank control, PBS or pEGFP-C1 controls, p < 0.05
