TNF and infection: Muñoz-Pérez (Munoz-Perez et al., 2021) further investigated the modulatory role of citral in inflammation resulting from infection with S. aureus and discovered a significant inhibition of PGF-2α-induced contractions, a concentration-dependent increase in myometrial cAMP levels, and a concentration-dependent decrease in the LPS-induced production of TNFα and IL-1β, while the production of IL-10 was significantly increased.
