Cytokine (fold increase) | TNF | IL-4 | IL-6 | IL-17 |

Crry −/− EAMG / WT EAMG | 3.17 | 3.27 | 2.71 | 2.74 |
- Crry deficiency in EAMG was associated with increased serum levels of the pro-inflammatory TNF as well as IL-4, IL-6 and IL-17. Cytokine induction ratio (fold increase) in Crry −/− EAMG group was calculated as follows. An average serum cytokine concentration in Crry −/− EAMG was divided by serum cytokine concentration in WT EAMG mice (Day 63 post primary immunization).
