  1. 1LPS was used at 25 ng/ml, PMA at 50 ng/ml and CEES 500 μM. Values are means ± SD and means (in a given row) not sharing the same superscript letter are significantly different (p < 0.05). 2PI(%) is the percent of propidium iodide fluorescence over that of the control cells. 3The MTT levels are given as 575 nm absorbance units.
