In contrast, IP-10 and RANTES in patients with ITP showed a negative correlation with the number of total MAIT cells (p = 0.0242 and 0.0029, respectively), CD4−CD8+ MAIT cells (p = 0.0203 and 0.0029, respectively), and CD4−CD8− MAIT cells (p = 0.0155 and 0.0148, respectively) (Fig 4A and 4B). Here, CCL5 is linked to autoimmune thrombocytopenic purpura.
