The effect of a combination of fucose-mannose ligand (FML) with glycyrrhizin (GL) on the production of IL-12p70 by macrophages. Treatment with FML and with 10 and 20 μg/ml concentrations of GL significantly increased IL-12p70 levels in the activated macrophages. Results are expressed as the mean ± SD of measurements from triplicate cultures (**P ≤ 0.001). Abbreviations: PBS, phosphate-buffered saline; ns, not significant
