Small and large intestinal epithelial cell (IEC) lines were established from adult murine intestinal crypts. Both established small and large IECs line (named aMoS7 and aMoC1 respectively) expressed epithelial markers. Similarly to IECs isolated f...
Interleukin (IL)-6 secretion from macrophage cells is known to be induced by toll-like receptor (TLR) 9 ligands, CpG (microbial DNA sequences containing unmethylated CpG dinucleotides). We have found, using macrophage-like J774.1 cells, that this ...
