Figure 7

Correlation of the frequency of IL-17A + CD4 + T cells with lung lesion score and antibody titers during the chronic phase. Scatterplots show correlation of the frequency of IL-17A+ CD4+ T cells isolated from lung and blood with lung lesion score (top panel) and antibody titer (bottom panel) in chronically infected animals. Antibody titer is expressed as a ratio between optical density of the sample (ODs) and the mean of the optical density of the positive control (MODp). Spearman’s Rank Correlation coefficients (ρ) are displayed above each scatterplot.
