From: Activated IL-23/IL-17 pathway closely correlates with increased Foxp3 expression in livers of chronic hepatitis B patients

Figure 3

Increased Foxp3 expressions is positively correlated with HBV persistence in host liver. Liver biopsy samples from 38 CHB patients were used for the detection of Foxp3 mRNA by qPCR. Sera and plasma samples from CHB patients were measured for ALT level, log10 HBsAg (IU/ml), or log10 HBV loads (copies/ml). The relationships between Foxp3 and clinical symptoms of these patients were analyzed. P < 0.05 was considered significant.
