Higher IL-10 concentrations in ear canals of dogs suffering from atopic dermatitis/otitis and otodectic mange compared with those in healthy controls. Luminex^® technology was used to measure concentrations of IL-10 in the ear canals of healthy dogs, group 1A (n = 19 ears), and group 1B (n = 20 ears), and the concentrations were compared, respectively, with atopic dogs with otitis, group 2 (n = 14 ears), and dogs with otodectic mange, group 3 (n = 20 ears) using the multiplex cytokine panel. Data are presented as box and whiskers (median, interquartile range, and min–max values).
