Circulating Th1, Th2, and Th17 Levels in Hypertensive Patients

Figure 3

Correlation analysis of circulating Th1, Th2, and Th17 levels with IFN-γ, IL-4, and IL-17 concentrations in hypertensive patients, nondipper patients, and CAP patients. (a) The frequencies of Th1 cells showed a positive correlation with IFN-γ levels in hypertensive patients. (b) The frequencies of Th2 cells showed a positive correlation with IL-4 levels in hypertensive patients. (c) The frequencies of Th17 cells showed a positive correlation with IL-17 levels in hypertensive patients. (d) The frequencies of Th1 cells showed a positive correlation with IFN-γ levels in nondippers. (e) The frequencies of Th2 cells showed a positive correlation with IL-4 levels in nondippers. (f) The frequencies of Th17 cells showed a positive correlation with IL-17 levels in nondippers. (g) The frequencies of Th1 cells showed a positive correlation with IFN-γ levels in CAP patients. (h) There were no significant correlations between the frequencies of Th2 cells and IL-4 levels in CAP patients. (i) The frequencies of Th17 cells showed a positive correlation with IL-17 levels in CAP patients.
