We also evaluated the production of cytokines (IL-12 p40, IL-12 p70, IL-6, IL-23, and IL-10) in MD-DCs from allergic asthma children, and found that PS-G alone stimulated Der p 1-pulsed DCs to secrete IL-12 p40, IL-12 p70, IL6, IL23, and IL-10. The gene discussed is IL6; the disease is allergic asthma.
