We used Bio-Plex method [20] to determine the dysregulation of cytokines or chemokines (IL-1β, IL-1RA, IL-2, IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-7, IL-8, IL-9, IL-10, IL-12(p70), IL-13, IL-15, IL-17, FGF-β, eotaxin, G-CSF, GM-CSF, IFN-γ, IP-10, MCP-1, MIP-1α, MIP-1β, PDGF-BB, RANTES, TNF-α and VEGF) in the plasma of PTSD patients. Here, IL7 is linked to post-traumatic stress disorder.
