IL-10 IL-8 MCP-1
IFN-γ ZCL r = 0.791 r = −0.034 r = 0.633
p = 0.005 p = 0.889 p = 0.004
SCL r = 0.291 r = 0.590 r = 0.528
p = 0.226 p = 0.004 p = 0.012
IL-10 ZCL r = 0.040 r = 0.635
p = 0.884 p = 0.008
SCL r = 0.302 r = 0.381
p = 0.196 p = 0.097
IL-8 ZCL r = 0.471
p = 0.015
SCL r = 0.602
p = 0.002

Note. A Spearman rank correlation coefficient near 1 with p < 0.05 reflects a linear relationship in expression of molecules. IL, interleukin; IFN, interferon; MCP, monocyte chemotactic protein.
