The increased production was observed for both pro-inflammatory proteins, such as GM-CSF, IL1-beta, IL2, IL5, and IL8 (Figures 6A–E), and anti-inflammatory proteins, such as IL10 (Figure 6F), indicating that the higher cytokine secretion in MS patients was likely independent of cytokine function (Supplementary Table 9). This evidence concerns the gene IL5 and myeloid sarcoma.
