Pulmonary CCR4⁺, CCR5⁺, and CXCR3⁺T cells. Percentages of (A) CCR4⁺CD4⁺, CCR4⁺CD8⁺, (B) CCR5⁺CD4⁺ and CCR5⁺CD8⁺ and (C) CXCR3⁺CD4⁺ and CXCR3⁺CD8⁺ T cells in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) are shown in children with interstitial lung diseases (ILD) and healthy controls. Percentages of CCR4⁺CD4⁺, CCR4⁺CD8⁺, CCR5⁺CD4⁺, CCR5⁺CD8⁺, CXCR3⁺CD4⁺ and CXCR3⁺CD8⁺ T cells were analyzed in BALF by flow cytometry. Median values are shown by horizontal bars. Differences between the patient groups were tested with the Mann-Whitney U test; * p < 0.05; ** p < 0.01
