Similar to the changes observed in BA21, none of the inflammatory markers was altered in PDD and DLB (with the exception of increased IFN-γ in DLB), while increased IL-1α was observed in both BA9 and BA40 (Additional file 1: Fig. S1), together with elevated IL-13 and IL-10 in BA40 of the AD subjects (Additional file 1: Fig. S2). Here, IL13 is linked to Alzheimer disease.
