Figure 1From: Immunomodulatory activity of polysaccharides isolated from Clerodendrum splendens: Beneficial effects in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis Effect of Clerodendrum polysaccharide fractions on murine macrophage nitric oxide production. Murine J774.A1 macrophages were incubated for 24 hr with the indicated concentrations of CSP-NU (■, panel A), CSP-AU (□, panel A), CSP-NB (●, panel A), CSP-AB (○, panel A), CSP-AU1 (♦, panel B), CSP-AU2 (◊, panel B), CSP-NU1 (▲, panel C), CSP-NU2 (Δ, panel C), or 200 ng/ml LPS (, panel A). Values are the mean ± S.D. of triplicate samples from one experiment, which is representative of two independent experiments. Statistically significant differences (* p<0.05) between PBS-treated cells and cells treated with polysaccharide fractions or LPS are indicated.Back to article page
