[Effects of glutamine on the cytokine expression of peripheral blood mononuclear cells].
To investigate the effects of glutamine (Gln) on the cytokine expression of the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) stimulated by lipopolysaccharide (LPS). ⋯ Glutamine dose- and time-dependently downregulates the expression of the mediators of inflammation, and lessen the excessive expression of those cytokines in cells stimulated by LPS.
