M2 Polarization of Human Macrophages Favors Survival of the Intracellular Pathogen Chlamydia pneumoniae
Fig 5
Cytokine release of M1 and M2 macrophages infected with C. pneumoniae.
Monocytes were cultured and polarized as shown in Scheme 1B and fully polarized M1 and M2 macrophages (4x105/mL each) were infected with C. pneumoniae (4x104 IFU) for 24 h. Cytokine concentrations are expressed as mean ± SD for 3 independent experiments.
