In order to examine whether the function of mo-DCs was affected by HBV infection, we examined the concentration of DC-secretion cytokines, including TNF-α, IL-10 and IL-12 p70, in the supernatant of mo-DCs from HD group and CHB group infection at day 10 after cultured in unstimulated condition, LPS, supernatant of both HepG2.2.15 cells and HepG2 cells by ELISA (Fig. 3). The gene discussed is TNF; the disease is infection.
