Direct effects of K5-NP on the expression of inflammatory cytokines in RPE cells. The direct effect of K5-NP on the expression of inflammatory cytokines was evaluated in cultured RPE cells. ARPE19 cells in hypoxia or normoxia were treated with control-NP or K5-NP. Levels of MCP-1 (A) and TNF-α (B) secreted into the culture media were analyzed by ELISA. Data are the mean ± SD; n = 3.
