Upregulation of Notch-1 and IL-6 in the blood of CD patients and the effect of Mycobacterium avium paratuberculosis (MAP) infection on Notch-1 and IL-6 levels. ab Expression levels of Notch-1 and IL-6 were measured in peripheral leukocytes isolated from CD and healthy controls (n = 4). c Circulating IL-6 levels were measured in the plasma of CD and healthy controls (n = 22). d, e Expression levels of Notch-1 and IL-6 were measured in peripheral leukocytes isolated from MAP positive and MAP negative individuals (n = 4). f Circulating IL-6 levels were measured in the plasma of MAP positive and MAP negative individuals (n = 22). Gene expression levels were measured using RT-PCR. Plasma IL-6 levels were measured using ELISA. Data are shown as mean ± SD, and significant is considered as *P < 0.05
