Comparison of ESPs exposed to different treatments on the expression of IL-10 and IL-17A in B and CD4+ T cells. a The relative expression of IL-10 in cultured B cells stimulated with PBS, LPS, heat-inactivated ESPs (H-ESPs), periodate treated ESPs (P-ESPs), and native ESPs using quantitative real-time PCR. M-ESPs represented a negative control to periodate treatment. b The percentages of Annexin V+ B cells following exposure to ESPs. c The relative expression of IL-17A in cultured B cells. d The relative expression of IL-17A in anti-CD3 and anti-CD28 activated CD4+ T cells. The differences were analyzed using one-way ANOVA. Asterisks indicate statistically significant differences between groups. *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01
