Morphine up-regulates IL-17A production during sepsis.
(a) IL-17A concentrations in peritoneal lavage at different time points following CLP. *p < 0.05 (Student’s t test) (n = 5) (b) IL-17A concentrations in serum at different time points following CLP. *p < 0.05 (Student’s t test) (n = 5) (c) IL-17A expression in MLN CD3 + CD4 + cells. (d) Frequencies of IL-17A positive cells in CD3 + CD4 + cells. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01 (ANOVA followed by Bonferroni’s t test) (Each dot represents one animal) (e) IL-17A expression in MLN CD3-cells (f) Frequencies of IL-17A positive cells in CD3- cells. (Each dot represents one animal).
