Serum cytokine profile. Interleukin (IL)-2, IL-12p70, IL-1α, IL-1β, IL-8, IL-6, IL10 (neg = 36, pos = 25, ctrl = 23), Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α; neg = 33, pos = 23, ctrl = 23), granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF; neg = 33, pos = 23, ctrl = 19) and transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β; neg = 27, pos = 21, ctrl = 9) levels were evaluated in serum samples from HER2- (neg), HER2+ (pos) patients and age-matched healthy women (ctrl). Statistical analysis was performed with the Wilcoxon two-sample test. *, P<0.05 (refer to text for exact P value). HER2, human epidermal growth factor receptor-2.
