IL-9 regulates macrophage activation in the brain of secondary progressive MS patients. Adjacent frozen sections of post-mortem brain of progressive MS patients were stained with anti-CD68 and anti-IL-9 (1 representative of “CD68 high” group in a; 1 representative of “CD68 low” group in b). Counts of total positive cells for IL-9 in brain biopsy specimens from 3 patients of “CD68 high” and 4 patients with “CD68 low” group were compared. Mean ± SEM are reported (c). *p < 0.05. The count of IL-9 positive cells inversely correlated to CD68 positive cells with the Pearson correlation (R, correlation coefficient)
