Interleukin-6 in neuro-Behçet's disease: association with disease subsets and long-term outcome.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:To examine the expression of chemokine receptors in different peripheral blood T-cell subsets in patients with polymyositis (PM) and dermatomyositis (DM). METHODS:We used flow cytometry to measure the frequencies of chemokinereceptors CXCR3 and CCR4 expression in the CD4+ or CD8+ lymphocytes. Enzyme linked i...
