Fig. 3From: Interictal cytokine levels were correlated to seizure severity of epileptic patients: a retrospective study on 1218 epileptic patientsSTATs were activated in patients with different types of epilepsy. PBMCs were extracted from healthy controls and different epileptic patients (TLE, XLE and IGE). Levels of activated STAT1 (a), STAT2 (b), STAT3 (c), STAT4 (d), STAT5a (e), and STAT5b (f) were measured by flow cytometry. Data represent a minimum of three independent experiments. Asterisks denote p < 0.05 in comparison to untreated samples. TLE temporal lobe epilepsy, XLE extra-temporal lobe epilepsy, IGE idiopathic generalized epilepsyBack to article page
