Fig. 2From: Vasoactive intestinal peptide ameliorates renal injury in a pristane-induced lupus mouse model by modulating Th17/Treg balanceEffects of VIP on modulating the Th17/Treg balance in LN mice. After treatment with VIP for 4 weeks, the peripheral blood and spleens from LN mice were collected and analysed by flow cytometry. The pseudo-coloured flow cytometry picture represents the cellular distribution of one typical sample from each group. a Proportion of Th17 cells in the peripheral blood and spleens; b proportion of Treg cells in the peripheral blood and spleens. **p < 0.01 compared with LN miceBack to article page
