Using a flow cytometry technique, we assessed the levels of specific cytokines, namely IL-1β IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, IL12p70, and TNF, and chemokines, IFN-α, IP-10, and MIG in the serum from 9 healthy volunteers and 20 AAV patients, where 11 of the patients were not treated and evaluated at the time of diagnosis and 9 were already diagnosed and taking CY + GCS. The gene discussed is CXCL9; the disease is anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis.
