Fig 2. Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid levels of Th17 pathway cytokines and chemokines are significantly increased in adult non-CF bronchiectasis.

Fig 2

(A) All Th17 pathway mediators are significantly increased in non-CF bronchiectasis (n = 41) compared with healthy control (n = 20) subjects. (B) Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid levels of IL-17A correlate strongly with all Th17 pathway mediators, but most strongly with IL-23 (n = 61). (Cont—control, BE—bronchiectasis; Box and whisker plots display median and interquartile ranges; p values are by Mann-Whitney U test).
