1 The values obtained for IL-17 in pSS patients were also associated with the patients" clinical characteristics, particularly the rheumatoid factor (RF) and total antinuclear antibodies (tANA) levels. pss interleukin 17A Homo sapiens
2 RESULTS: Serum concentrations of IL-17 were significantly (P<0.01) higher in patients with pSS (12.9 +- 28.0 pg/ml) as compared to those obtained in healthy individuals (0.2 +- 0.6 pg/ml), but not as high as the values obtained for the patients with RA (34.5 +- 56.2 pg/ml). pss interleukin 17A Homo sapiens
3 The mean IL-17 levels were significantly (P<0.05) higher in the pSS patients positive for rheumatoid factor (20.3 +- 33.3 pg/ml) than in RF-negatives (0.3 +- 0.6 pg/ml). pss interleukin 17A Homo sapiens
