Figure 5From: Protective effect of resin adsorption on septic plasma-induced tubular injurySignificant decrease of cytokine levels in septic plasma after Amberchrom resin adsorption. ELISA assay of soluble CD154, soluble Fas-L and TNF-alpha levels in plasma collected from septic patients before (dark columns) and after (white columns) Amberchrom resin adsorption for 120 minutes. Resin adsorption induced a significant decrease of all cytokines tested (P < 0.05 *CD154, §Fas-L or #TNF-alpha septic + CG161 M vs. septic). Results are expressed as average ± standard deviation. For statistical analysis, t-student test was performed.Back to article page
