Quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis of interleukin (IL)-17 in additional samples. The expression of the IL-17 gene in the same sample specimens as in Fig. 4 was examined and presented as in Fig 2. The data were analysed statistically and IL-17 gene expression in peripheral blood (PB)-derived CD4+ T cells was found to be significantly higher in comparison with equivalent CB-derived CD4+ T cells at 1 week (P<0·05) but not at 2 weeks.
