(a) Schematic of the experimental flow. (b) Complement activation and (c) cytokines produced in response to anticoagulant fibers and aptamers assessed in human PBMCs freshly isolated from the blood of healthy donors. Data are shown as mean ± SD, N = 2 repeats for N = 3 donors. The statistical significance of NU fibers in comparison to untreated cells (NC) is denoted by an asterisk (p < 0.05).
