CD3+CD4+ T cells expressed higher CD161+ and IL-23R+ Th17 cells percentages in PBMCs of CRSwNP. Lymphocytes were analyzed with flow cytometry after stimulation with PHAM and A. flavus antigen and in unstimulated cells for 18 h. a, b Representative FACS plots showing the percentage positivity of CD161+ in CD4+ T cells and c, d representative FACS plots showing the percentage positivity of IL-23R+ in CD4+ T cells, in CRSwNP cases before (NP) and after treatment (NPF), and healthy controls (HC) after stimulation with PHAM and A. flavus antigen and in unstimulated cells The statistical significance was determined by the Student t-test. Where * p   ≤ 0.05; ** p  ≤ 0.01; *** p ≤  0.001
