Effect of rFgLGMN-1 on cytokine transcription. The messenger RNA abundance of cytokines, including a interferon-γ (IFN-γ), b interleukin-4 (IL-4), c IL-10 and d transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) in PBMCs stimulated by rFgLGMN-1 were analyzed by real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR); PBS-treated PBMCs served as the control. Graphs represent means ± SDs of results from three independent biological replicates. Asterisks indicate statistically significant differences between treated cells and control cells: **P < 0.01, ****P < 0.0001. For other abbreviations, see Figs. 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5
