Transcription factor expression in CD4+L-17+IFN-γ+ T cells from NP tissues. (a) IL-17A+ and IL-17A- cells were gated on CD4+ T cells in NP tissues. The expression of IFN-γ, RORγt, and T-bet was analyzed (). (b) CD4+ T cells from NP tissues were gated on the expression of IL-17A and IFN-γ. Representative FACS and summary data showed the expression of RORγt, T-bet in IL-17+IFN-γ+, and IL-17-IFN-γ- cells (). Data were shown as the . Statistical significance was determined with the Mann–Whitney test. ; ; .
