IL-6

[Bone & Joint Journal] Synovium-derived MSCs (SMSCs) were isolated from synovium specimens of patients undergoing temporomandibular joint surgery. Chondrogenic differentiation potential of SMSCs was evaluated in vitro in the control, IL-1β stimulation, and IL-1β stimulation with histone deacetylase inhibitors groups.

[Environmental Science and Pollution Research] The authors examined the viability of BEAS-2B and mRNA/protein expression profile of oxidative stress and inflammatory response-related transcription factors Nrf2, NF-kB, and according inflammatory indicators such as IL-1, IL-6, and IL-8, with a view to evaluating the effects of different interaction models of PM2.5 on epithelial cell damage in vitro.

[Nanotoxicology] In this in vitro study scientists assessed the cytotoxic effects of nickel oxide nanoparticles (NiONPs) on human pulmonary artery endothelial cells.

[Scientific Reports] In controlled in vitro assays it was found that Acanthus ebracteatus Vahl. extract and verbascoside at various concentrations induced dermal papilla cell proliferation which was indicated by an increase in the number of cells in the S and G2/M phases of the cell cycle.

[British Journal of Nutrition] Researchers assessed the effect of citrus flavonoids and their intestinal metabolites on immune-mediated barrier disruption in an in vitro co-culture model.

[International Journal of Biological Macromolecules] Peripheral blood mononuclear cells were isolated by density gradient and incubated with RPMI, LPS, BthTX-I or BthTX-II isolated from Bothrops jararacussu venom, to evaluate viability, and the results showed that there was no cell death.
