Cytotoxicity of CAMPs to JAWSII and CHO-K1 cells. Effect of CAMPs on the viability of mouse immature dendritic JAWSII cells (a) and hamster ovary CHO-K1 cells (b) at 4 and 48 h of incubation with peptide at the concentration of 64 to 512 μg/ml. Results are percentages of viable cells relative to the untreated control cells. The data are expressed as the mean ± SD of three independent experiments. An asterisk indicates a statistically significant difference in the viability of CAMP-treated cells and untreated cells (*p < 0.05 and **p < 0.01)
