The analysis of cytokines from conditioned media of MeWo cells revealed a sevenfold induction of IL-8 (Fig 2H and I) and significant induction of other cytokines associated with melanoma progression and therapeutic resistance, such as GROα (CXCL1) (Dhawan & Richmond, 2002; Botton et al, 2011) and IL-6 (Soler et al, 2023) (Fig S2D and E). The gene discussed is CXCL8; the disease is melanoma.
