Decreased Expression of the Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor in Ocular Behcet’s Disease
Figure 5
Effect of AhR activation by FICZ or ITE on phospho-STAT1, -3, -4, and -5 in CD4+T cells. (a) CD4+T cells from normal controls () were stimulated with anti-CD3/CD28 and rIL-23 in the presence or absence of FICZ or ITE for 30 min. Intracellular phosphorylated STAT1, -3, -4, and -5 were analyzed by flow cytometry. A representative histogram from each group along with the isotype control is shown. (b) Statistical results of phosphorylated STAT1, -3, -4, and -5 in stimulated CD4+T cells. Paired-sample t test for related samples was used for statistical analyses. The data are expressed as mean ± s.e.m.
