Levels of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), interferon-stimulated gene 15 (ISG15), and interferon alpha (IFN-α) and their correlations with Toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9) in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients. The mRNA expression of MCP-1 (a; N Control = 49, N SLE = 111), ISG15 (b; N Control = 26, N SLE = 34), and IFNα (c; N Control = 12, N SLE = 26) in the peripheral blood of SLE patients and healthy controls. The results in a.b.c are presented as Mean and SEM. Correlations between levels of TLR9 and MCP-1 (d; N SLE = 111), ISG15 (e; N SLE = 26), or IFNα (f; N SLE = 20).
