Figure 6.

The direct and dose-dependent effect of GBC30 fractions on Th1/Th2 cytokine production, in the absence of other stimuli, is shown. The increase in production of the Th2 cytokines IL-4, IL-6, and IL-10, and composite effect on Th1 cytokines IL-2, IFN-γ, and TNF-α, is shown for the metabolite-rich fraction MTB (A, B) and the cell wall fraction CW (C, D). In the graphs B and D, the data from IL-6 were removed to better show the changes in production of the other 5 cytokines.
