(A) The immDCs were incubated in presence of different concentrations of Nef with 0 ng/ml, 1 ng/ml, 25 ng/ml, 50 ng/ml, 75 ng/ml, 100 ng/ml and 125 ng/ml. The supernatant was collected after 24 hrs followed by measurement of cytokine concentrations through ELISA. Data represent the mean±SEM (n = 3). Statistical analysis was performed using Student's t-test, with the levels of significance defined as p*<0.05 and p**<0.01. (B) The immDCs were incubated in presence of Nef (100 ng/ml) for upto 24 hrs time. The supernatant was collected and the cytokine concentrations were detected through ELISA. Data represent the mean±SEM (n = 3). Statistical analysis was performed using Student's t-test, with the levels of significance defined as p*<0.05. (C) The immDCs were incubated in presence of different concentrations of gp120 (0 µg/ml, 1 µg/ml, 2 µg/ml, 3 µg/ml, 4 µg/ml and 5 µg/ml). The supernatant was collected after 24 hrs followed by measurement of cytokine concentrations through ELISA. Data represent the mean±SEM (n = 3). Statistical analysis was performed using Student's t-test, with the levels of significance defined as p*<0.05 and p**<0.01. (D) The immDCs were incubated in presence of gp120 (4 µg/ml) for upto 24 hrs time. The supernatant was collected and the cytokine concentrations were detected through ELISA. Data represent the mean±SEM (n = 3). Statistical analysis was performed using Student's t-test, with the levels of significance defined as p*<0.05.
