Abstract
⺠CMV and LPS induced cytokine production of skin fibroblasts depends on donor age. ⺠Stimulated fibroblasts from elderly donors produce higher amounts of IL6 and IL8. ⺠CMV-infection can increase the inflammatory response to bacterial products (LPS). ⺠The inflammatory response to LPS stimulation is different in individual cell types.
