Fig. 2. The expression of Th2 cells and Th2-related factors from patients with INS. A. Flow cytometry histogram for Th2 cells.B. The proportions of Th2 cells. C. Plasma concentrations of IL-4. D. Plasma concentrations of IL-13. Data are shown as mean ± SD. Fouty children with INS and tweety control subjects were enrolled in this study. Fourteen patients were non-atopic constitution, six patients were atopic constitution. Data are shown as mean ± SD. *P < 0.05. ** P > 0.05. Ctrl, healthy control; AA, acute allergy; ANA, acute non-allergy; RA, remission atopy; RNA, remission non-allergy.
Fig. 3. The expression of miRNAs in CD4+CD25- T cells from INS patients. Relative expression levels of miRNAs were determined by real-time PCR using U6 as an endogenous reference. Normalized values are derived from the ratios of target miR/U6 expression, shown as mean ± SD. Fourteen patients with non-atopic constitution INS and tweety control subjects were enrolled in this study. Data are shown as mean ± SD. *P < 0.05. **P > 0.05. Ctrl, healthy control; ANA, acute non-allergy; RNA, remission non-allergy.
