Table 2.

Ratios of serum Th1 and Th2 cytokine concentrations in subjects.

	IL-2/IL-4	IL-2/IL-10	IFN-γ/IL-4	IFN-γ/IL-10	IL-4/IL-10
Control subjects	2.16	1.49	5.91	4.07	0.69
Type 2 diabetics	0.99^§	0.15^§	3.95^§	0.61^§	0.16^§

“Th1/Th2 and Th2/Th2 (last column) ratios were shifted toward Th2 phenotype in insulin-treated T2D patients. Values are ratios of mean concentrations of serum cytokines n = 43 healthy control subjects; n = 45 type 2 diabetic patients. The symbol (§) indicates significant difference between the two ratios”.
