CD27+9+T cell numbers correlated positively with the number of TNF-+9+T cells, and serum IL-2 and CD4-CD8-CD27+T cell compartment size showed a positive correlation with the number of the IL17+CD4-CD8-T cells, whereas serum IL-6 levels exhibited negative correlation with IL17+CD4-CD8-T cells (Fig 6)
