Table 2 Fat cells are not required for the up-regulation of IL-8 release and IL-8 mRNA seen in nonfat cells over a 48 h incubation

From: The inflammatory response seen when human omental adipose tissue explants are incubated in primary culture is not dependent upon albumin and is primarily in the nonfat cells

  1. The change in IL-8 mRNA at 48 h is the fold-change derived from the ΔCp over 48 h of -9.6 ± 0.3. The values are from 8 experiments and the % changes are the mean ± SEM of the paired differences. None were statistically significant with a P < 0.05.
