Induction of interleukin-8 in lung epithelial cells by Gram negative bacteria and its modulation by pulmonary surfactant lipids
The surfactants did not inhibit IL-8 induced by IL-1[Special character omitted.] in A549 cells suggesting that they act at the level of the LPS receptor complex. Disruption of membrane micro-domains ('rafts') with methyl-[Special character omitted.]-cyclodextrin significantly inhibited bac...
