Effects of BCAA administration on cytokine levels in the PIR model. A IL-1α (inter-leukin-1α), B IL-1β (interleukin-1β), C IL-4(interleukin-4), D IL-6(interleukin-6), E IL-10(interleukin-10), F TNF-α (tumor necrosis factor-α), G IFN-γ (interferon γ) and H GM-CSF (Granulocyte–Macrophage Colony-Stimulating Factor) were determined using the Luminex assay (n = 8). Data are shown as mean ± SEM. **P < 0.01, ****P < 0.0001. BCAA: branched-chain amino acids, CON: control
