A significant difference (* P < 0.05 and ** P < 0.01) for the levels of six different cytokines was found when comparing mature moDC from pSS patients with mature moDC from healthy controls.
Expression of CCR7 is increased in mature moDC from pSS patients, which could lead to an increased homing ability of these cells.
We also analyzed the amounts of phosphorylated Stat1 levels, and detected significantly less p-Stat1 (S727) and reduced p-Stat1 (Y701) in mature moDC from pSS patients.
Decreased levels of Stat1 in mature moDC from pSS patients might thus cause higher RelB activation and eventually lead to elevated cytokine production.
We found significantly decreased levels of the chemokine of IL-7 and IFN gamma in mature moDC from pSS patients compared with controls.
