Interleukin-23 (IL-23) and IL-23R expressions in thyroid tissues from Hashimoto’s thyroiditis (HT) patients. (A) Thyroid gland sections from HT patients (n = 10) and control subjects (n = 5) were stained for IL-23 or IL-23R. Representative immunohistochemistry (IHC) results for IL-23 or IL-23R expression are shown. Brown regions represent positive expression of IL-23 or IL-23R. The slides were analyzed under a 400× microscope equipped with a camera (scale bars, 50 µm). (B) Cumulative IHC quantification data from 10 HT patients and 5 control subjects are shown. Significant differences and P values are calculated with the Mann–Whitney U test. ***P < 0.001 vs. controls.
