<p>A. Representative dot plots of Treg cells (CD4⁺CD25^hiFoxp3⁺ cells) in Pre-T, Post-T CR and Post-T NR group. B. Representative dot plots of Th17 cells (CD3⁺CD4⁺IL-17⁺ cells) in Pre-T, Post-T CR and Post-T NR group. C. The change of Treg cells percentage in CR patients before and after corticosteroids treatment. D. The change of Th17 cells percentage in CR patients before and after corticosteroids treatment. E. The change of Treg/Th17 ratio in CR patients before and after corticosteroids treatment. F. The change of Treg cells percentage in NR patients before and after corticosteroids treatment. G. The change of Th17 cells percentage in NR patients before and after corticosteroids treatment. H.
