Effect of MRS broth on cytokine secretion in hTERT-HM. hTERT-HM cells were treated with various doses of MRS broth (0.1–5% v/v) without LPS stimulus (solid grey bars) or for 16 hours prior to (checkered grey bars). Values are presented as fold change (mean ± SEM) relative to untreated control (solid white bars). Statistical significance was determined by One-way ANOVA followed by Dunnett’s post-test relative to LPS stimulus (100 ng/mL, solid black bar). *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; ***P < 0.001 (n = 4).
