Figure 2. — Diminished circulating levels of T-helper (T_H) 1 and T_H17 cytokines and elevated levels of T_H2 cytokines and transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) in individuals with Strongyloides stercoralis infection with type 2 diabetes mellitus (INF group). A, Plasma levels of T_H1 cytokines (IFN-γ, TNF–α, and IL-2) and T_H17 cytokines (IL-17A, IL-17F, and IL-22) in the INF and UN (individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus and no S. stercoralis infection) groups. B, Plasma levels of T_H2 (IL-4, IL-5, and IL-13) and regulatory (IL-10 and TGF-β) cytokines in the INF and UN groups were measured. Each dot is an individual subject with the bar representing the geometric mean. Abbreviations: IFN-γ, interferon gamma; IL, interleukin; TGF-β, transforming growth factor beta; TNF-α, tumor necrosis factor alpha; Ss, Strongyloides stercoralis.
