Table 2. Salivary gland cytokines in Ro60-immunized Balb/c mice.

		Th1-			Th17-	Th2-
		IFN-γ	IL-12p40	IL-18	IL-17	IL-4	IL-10
	PBS	21.3	6.8	165.4	3.2	8.0	12.5
SG homogenates	Ro60-Tail	27.0	6.7	88.5	4.0	7.2	16.1
	Ro60-Abdominal area	50.8	13.5	172.1	6.6	10.3	14.3

Cytokine levels in the SG were determined after extraction of soluble protein from the SGs and correction for total protein concentration. Data from SG protein extracts are the mean (pg/mL) of 3 random samples from 10 mice/group for one experiment.
