Fig. 6From: Increased Vδ1γδT cells predominantly contributed to IL-17 production in the development of adult human post-infectious irritable bowel syndromeThe capability of producing inflammatory cytokines by the Vδ1 γδ T cells was evaluated by detecting the concentration of IL-17 and IFN-γ in the supernatants of the cultured subset. The Vδ1 γδ T cells of PI-IBS patients significantly produced more IL-17 than control groups after stimulated by IL-23. All experiments were repeated three times. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01Back to article page
