After inhalation exposure the respiratory sensitizers induced more interleukin-4 (IL-4) and interleukin (IL-10) compared to the contact sensitizers, whereas the contact sensitizers, except formaldehyde, induced relatively more interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) production.

ELISA was used to detect the interleukin (IL)-6, an important proinflammatory cytokine. 4% formaldehyde was used to fix the FLS and LAD-2 cells and then detect the IL-6 levels in the supernatant.

To further investigate the influence of inactivation treatment on cytokine production, three probiotic strains were evaluated-live, heat-inactivated, and formalin-inactivated strains-for their impact on interleukin (IL) 6, IL-8, and IL-10 production in Caco-2-leucocyte cocultures.
