IL-5 expression by GR-MF a Real time RT-PCR to determine the relative expression of IL-5 by GR-MF stimulated with TGF-β (30 ng/mL) and IL-13 (40 ng/mL). The relative value was obtained in relation to GAPDH expression. b IL-5 levels measured by ELISA into supernatant of GR-MF stimulated with TGF-β (30 ng/mL) and IL-13 (40 ng/mL). c IL-5 levels measured by ELISA into supernatant of GR-MF spheroids stimulated with TGF-β (30 ng/mL) and IL-13 (40 ng/mL) after 4 days in culture. These graphs are representative from three experiments. *P ≤ 0.05 compared with non-stimulated cells
