Figure 3

Cytokine profile of HIV-1C infected Indian patients. The indicated cytokines, along with the inflammatory marker CRP were evaluated by ELISA in plasma collected from HIV-1C-infected patients (n = 85) harboring either R/H (filled diamond) or S/L (open circle) growth phenotype viruses, or in 10 HIV-uninfected healthy controls (filled triangle). The mean systemic values of each cytokine (pg/ml) and CRP (μg/ml) are compared in the figure for R/H and S/L viral phenotype groups. TNF-α, tumor necrosis factor-alfa; IFNγ, interferon-gamma; IL-1α, interleukin-1 α; IL-4, interleukin-4; IL-6, interleukin-6; IL-10, interleukin-10; IL-17, interleukin 17; IL-22, interleukin-22; CRP, C-reactive protein. Extreme outlier data points (IL-22) are not depicted for better visualization of results, but included into all calculations. *** = statistical difference of the medians, p < 0.001. The mean values of the measurements obtained from two independent experiments are shown.
