cord-277147-k11rl70f	Detrick, Barbara	Elevated serum levels of IL-6 and CXCL9 in autoimmune retinopathy (AIR) patients	2018-03-15		.txt	text/plain	4504	241	51	title: Elevated serum levels of IL-6 and CXCL9 in autoimmune retinopathy (AIR) patients Twenty-four serum samples from 18 AIR patients were initially analyzed by a multiplex immunoassay system for the presence of 5 cytokines and 1 chemokine. A comparison of CXCL9 levels detected in the sera from AIR patients and normal individuals is shown in Table 2 . The third patient also had severe disease that was associated with a high level of IL-6 (1 out of 2 samples) but normal levels of CXCL9. Although the presence of CXCL9 and IL-6 was not always detected in the same serum sample, patients with severe disease more frequently had elevated CXCL9, IL-6 or both cytokines in their sera. Clearly, the presence of IL-6 and CXCL9 in AIR patients is not specific to this disease since these molecules can be identified in systemic inflammatory and autoimmune processes.	./cache/cord-277147-k11rl70f.txt	./txt/cord-277147-k11rl70f.txt
