Figure 1

Dose-response of crude house-dust-mite (HDM) extract, natural purified Der p1 and recombinant (r)Der p5 of absolute levels of interleukin (IL)-6 (left panel) and IL-8 (right panel) protein. A549 cells were incubated during 24 hours in the absence and presence of increasing concentrations (indicated in μg/ml) of HDM extract, Der p1 and recombinant (r)Der p5. IL-6 protein levels are expressed as pg/ml; IL-8 protein levels are expressed as ng/ml.
