Correlation between the expressions of IL-23 and IL-17 in OLP tissue specimens. (a–c) Correlations between the staining scores of IL-23p19 and numbers of IL-17+ cells per hpf in total OLP tissue specimens (n = 27, r = 0.161, P > 0.05), erosive OLP tissue specimens (n = 13, r = 0.012, P > 0.05) and reticular OLP tissue specimens (n = 14, r = 0.559, P < 0.05). (d-e) Correlations between the mRNA expressions of IL-23p19 ((d) r = 0.723, P < 0.01) or IL-12p40 ((e) r = 0.565, P < 0.05) and IL-17 in reticular OLP tissue specimens (n = 14).
