Bixin reduces the proportion of Th1 and Th17 cell subsets. Subsets of Th1 and Th17 cells in CD4+ gate were analyzed by intracellular staining for IFN-γ and IL-17, respectively, in MNCs from the spleen (A) and CNS (B). (C, D). mRNA expression of the inflammatory cytokines IFN-γ and IL-17 were quantitated by qRT-PCR (E–F). IFN-γ and IL-17 levels in serum were measured by ELISA. Data shown in graphs represents the means ± SD (n = 5). **P < 0.01, vs. control group; ##P < 0.01, vs. EAE group.
