Immune Condition of Colorectal Cancer Patients Featured by Serum Chemokines and Gene Expressions of CD4+ Cells in Blood

Figure 1

Serum concentrations of eotaxin-1 and IL-8. Sera were obtained from CRC patients (n=30) prior to treatment and healthy volunteers (n=28). The serum concentrations of cytokines and chemokines were measured using a multiplex bead immunoassay system. (a) IL-8 levels; (b) eotaxin-1 levels. IL-8 levels in CRC patients by clinical stage (c) and eotaxin-1 levels by clinical stage (d). Correlations between IL-8 and CEA levels in CRC patients (e) and between IL-8 and CA19-9 levels (f).
