Expression of TSLP and Downstream Molecules IL-4, IL-5, and IL-13 on the Eye Surface of Patients with Various Types of Allergic Conjunctivitis

Figure 2

Relative expression levels of TSLP mRNA, IL-4 mRNA, IL-5 mRNA, and IL-13 mRNA in different types of allergic conjunctivitis. TSLP mRNA, IL-4 mRNA, IL-5 mRNA, and IL-13 mRNA expression levels are presented as relative fold in various types of allergic conjunctivitis over the normal controls, which were evaluated by RT and real-time PCR using gene expression assay, with GAPDH as an internal control. Results shown are the mean ± SD. ; each group .

(a) Relative expression levels of TSLP mRNA in different types of allergic conjunctivitis

(b) Relative expression levels of IL-4 mRNA in different types of allergic conjunctivitis

(c) Relative expression levels of IL-5 mRNA in different types of allergic conjunctivitis

(d) Relative expression levels of IL-13 mRNA in different types of allergic conjunctivitis
