In order to investigate the mRNA expression pattern in sarcoidosis, the expression levels of CCL2, CCL3, CCL4, CCL5, CCL7, CCL8, CCL13, CCL19, CXCL2, CXCL3, CXCL9, CXCL10, CXCL11, CXCL12, CXCL16, CCR1, CCR2A, CCR2B, CCR5, CXCR3, CXCR4, CXCR6, CXCR7, IL2, IL2RA, IL2RB, IL15RA, IFNG, and T-bet were determined in BAL cells obtained from sarcoidosis patients and control subjects. Here, CCL19 is linked to sarcoidosis.
