Pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokine production by RST1 and RST3 <i>B. burgdorferi</i> clinical isolates.

*B31-4 and A3-M9 lp36− were not included in the RST1 group when calculating averages and performing statistical analysis. Statistical significance was determined using a non-parametric Mann-Whitney U-test. Data shown are from three independent donors assessed in separate experiments.*在计算平均值并开展统计学分析时，B31-4与A3-M9 lp36−未被纳入RST1组。统计学显著性通过非参数曼-惠特尼U检验（Mann-Whitney U-test）进行判定。本次展示的数据来自3名独立供体，所有供体均在独立实验中完成评估。
