Figure 7. Th17, not Th1, production is correlated with lower level of H pylori colonization in HP-DC transferred mice 2 wk postinfection.

Figure 7

H pylori colonization was determined by quantitative PCR of H pylori–specific 16s rRNA and then correlated with H pylori–specific IFN-γ or IL-17 production. (A-B) Two wk postinfection. (C-D) Six wk postinfection. Correlations were compared. H pylori-specific IL-17 negatively correlated with H pylori colonization at 2 wk postinfection, not 6 wk postinfection.
