Figure 4From: Mononuclear cells modulate the activity of pancreatic stellate cells which in turn promote fibrosis and inflammation in chronic pancreatitisAnalysis of PSC supernatants and cell lysates following coculture with PBMC. (A) PSC cell culture supernatants were subjected to ELISA following coculture with donor, CP and sepsis PBMC. Hatched bars: PSC supernatants. White bars: Pooled donor, CP or sepsis PBMC and corresponding PSC supernatants. Black bars: coculture supernatants. *p < 0.05 as assessed using the Mann-Whitney U test. (B) Immunoblot analysis of fibronectin in PSC cell lysates. Densitometry shown as percent of control adjusted to the corresponding gamma-tubulin density.Back to article page
