IL1B and infection: In primary AECs treated with AZM prior HRV-1b infection compared to HRV-1b infected AECs, significant decrease in cytokine levels was observed in: IL-1β (Figure 3A; 21.8 ± 2.5 pg/mL/cell (+/+) versus 101.3 ± 21.6 pg/mL/cell (+/−); p < 0.01), IL-6 (Figure 3B; 488.0 ± 52.9 pg/mL/cell (+/+) versus 1134.2 ± 194.4 pg/mL/cell (+/−); p < 0.01), and IL-8 (Figure 3C; 15,310.0 ± 3270.6 pg/mL/cell (+/+) versus 37,425.4 ± 9632.2 pg/mL/cell (+/−); p < 0.05).
