PM exposure alters T-cell polarization in vitro. a, flow cytometry analysis based on selected markers showing altered differentiation of Th1 (INFg, upper left), Th2 (IL4, IL13, lower left), Th17 (IL17, upper right) and Treg (FOXP3, lower right) in response to treatment with PM suspension (“PM”) as compared to control; b, the percentage of four T-cell subtypes with standard error are compared between PM-treated naïve T-cells and control; c, the expression levels of three predicted T-cell related transcription factors are compared between PM-treated naïve T-cells and control using qPCR (* P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01, *** P < 0.001)
