Correlation analyses of IL-17 plasma levels with IFN-γ, IL-10, and GILZ; (A) IL-17 was positively correlated with IFN-γ (rs = 0.7789, P<0.0001). (B) Relationship between IL-17 plasma expression and IL-10 level. IL-17 is negatively correlated with IL-10 (rs = -0.6055, P<0.0001). (C) Relationship between IL-17 and GILZ mRNA expression. IL-17 is negatively correlated with GILZ. (rs = -0.6598, P<0.0001). P-values lower than 0.05 were considered as statistically significant. (Note) Data of IFN-γ, IL-10, and GILZ have been presented in our previous study (19)
