Peptide Concentration (µg/mL)	IFN-γ (pg/mL)	IL-2 (pg/mL)	TNF-α (pg/mL)
0 (Control)	12.3 ± 2.1	8.9 ± 1.8	5.6 ± 1.2

Data are expressed as mean ± standard deviation. Asterisks indicate statistically significant differences compared to the control group (0 µg/mL): p < 0.05 (*), p < 0.01 (**), p < 0.001 (***), determined by Student’s t-test.
