Evaluation of Inflammatory Cytokine Secretion by Human Alveolar Macrophages

Evaluation of Inflammatory Cytokine Secretion by Human Alveolar Macrophages

The alveolar macrophage (AM) secretes interleukin 1β (IL-1β), tumour necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and interleukin-8 (IL-8), all of them inflammatory cytokines involved in the pathogenesis of many lung diseases. The aim of the present work was to evaluate the basal and stimulated s...
