The characterization of the before and after stimulation NK cells, as classified by the IL28B TT and IL28B TG grouping. Between (a) and (c), there were no statistically significant differences noted between the IL28B TT and IL28B TG groups for the cell surface markers on the NK cells. Additionally, the NK cells from the IL28B TT group do not produce high amounts of IFN-γ when compared to the members of the IL28B TG group (d).
