Data represent the mean ± SEM of at least 3 independent experiments with different monocyte donors.

ND indicates not determined.

*

IL-6 and M-CSF were determined by ELISA. Lactate was measured with a clinical routine procedure

MCTSs were cultured with or without monocytes for 7 days. Supernatants of 20 wells were pooled, filtered, and stored at –20°C
