Figure 4

The effect of histamine and/or TNF-α on the DNA content of SiHa and ME-180 cells. SiHa cells were cultured with 0.1 mM histamine and/or TNF-α (a) or with 1 mM histamine and/or TNF-α (b) using incomplete or complete MEM. ME-180 cells were cultured with 1 mM histamine and/or TNF-α (c) using incomplete or complete McCoy's 5a medium. The results are expressed as the percentage of the fluorescence in the control wells. Each bar represents the mean of four individual quadruplicate cultures ± SE. "*" denotes p < 0.05 when compared with the control values.
