Decreased IL-27 Negatively Correlated with Th17 Cells in Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer Patients

Figure 2

The mRNA expressions of IL-27 and IL-17 in peripheral blood were measured by using QPCR. The mRNA levels of IL-27 (a) were significantly lower in NSCLC patients than in healthy controls. IL-17 mRNA levels (b) were significantly higher in NSCLC patients than in healthy controls. Results are expressed as pg/mL (mean ± SD). ; .
