PM exposure alter T-cell polarization and cause Treg/Th17 imbalance in vivo. a, baseline-adjusted Th1, Th2, Th17 and Treg levels in mouse lung at 18 h, 24 h, 40 h and 72 h following PM treatment, respectively. Each treatment group contains six BALB/c mice; b, the Levels of each T-cell subtype are compared at each time point between PM-treated group and the control group; c, baseline-adjusted Th1/ Th2, Treg/Th17 ratios in mouse lung at 18 h, 24 h, 40 h and 72 h following PM treatment; d, the ratios of Th1/Th2, Treg/Th17 are compared between PM-treated group and the control group at each time point (* P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01, *** P < 0.001)
