Figure 1. Levels of a-defensins 1–3 produced by imMDDC from HIV-infected individuals. (A) Comparison between the secreted levels of α-defensins 1–3 by imMDDC from HIV-controllers (elite controllers and viremic controllers; n = 13) and HIV non-controllers (viremic non-controllers and patients with HAART; n = 16). Bars indicated the mean of α-defensins 1–3 and error bars represent the SEM from the mean of the replicates.
