Table 1. Year 1 and year 4 plasma cytokine concentrations.

Plasma cytokine concentrations (pg/ml) measured at 1 and 4 years of age in offspring of non-human primates exposed to maternal immune activation (MIA) during gestation. IL-6, IL-17, CCL3 and CCL4 were undetectable in plasma for year 2. IL-4 was undetectable in plasma at both time points. Data presented as median with interquartile range; * denotes p-values less than 0.1 and ** denotes p-value less than 0.05.
