Levels of IP-10/CXCL10 were also significantly higher in the infection group when compared to the specific autoimmune/DM disease cases (p = 0.0005), lymphoma (p = 0.0487), and glioma (p = 0.0294) groups, and IP-10/CXCL10 levels were significantly higher in infectious and lymphomas compared to controls (p < 0.0001 and p = 0.0012, respectively) (Fig 3C). The gene discussed is CXCL10; the disease is central nervous system cancer.
