Immune system functionality has been commonly assessed by a whole-blood or isolated-cell stimulation assay. The aim of this study was to determine whether cytokine production in whole-blood-stimulated samples is influenced age, sex, and smoking. A descriptive cross-sectional 253 healthy participants aged 18–55 years conducted. Whole blood were stimulated for 24 h with LPS concentrations IL-6, IL-10, TNF-α determined the culture media. Among parameters considered, statistical regression...

Previous in vitro studies the have suggested anti-inflammatory properties of caffeine. Coffee is also rich phenolic acids with several potential health benefits (chlorogenic acids), mainly 5-caffeoylquinic acid (5-CQA). The aim present study was to determine effect caffeine and 5-CQA, using concentrations comparable typical human consumption, on LPS-induced cytokine production whole blood cultures. Whole samples (n = 10) were stimulated for 24 h LPS presence or 5-CQA. various cytokines,...
