  1. Values (n = 9; 3 independent experiments with three technical replicates each) represent the means ± S.E.M. Significant (P < 0.05). i indicate no significant different among the groups for Granzyme B; x, y, z, zz, zzz indicate significant different among the groups for TNF-α while a, b, c. d. e and f indicate significant different among the groups for IFN-γ (P < 0.05).
