Figure 1From: Palmitoylethanolamide stimulates phagocytosis of Escherichia coli K1 by macrophages and increases the resistance of mice against infections Phagocytosis of E. coli K1 by unstimulated and stimulated macrophages. Macrophages were either unstimulated (treated with medium containing 0.01% DMSO) or stimulated with PEA for 30 minutes (n ≥ 8 wells/group from two independent experiments). Data are given as means ± SD. Data were analyzed by ANOVA followed by Bonferroni multiple comparisons test (***P < 0.001, **P < 0.01).Back to article page
