In normal adult eyes, there was good reproducibility and repeatability of SFCT measurements obtained by the SD-OCT and SS-OCT instruments. However, the choroid measured with DRI-SS-OCT was thicker than that measured with both SD-OCT instruments, and, thus, the choroidal thickness should not be compared between the SD-OCT and SS-OCT instruments.

Abstract. The cytokine, interleukin (IL)-19, is a member of the IL-10 family that includes . Recent studies have shown that IL-19 is produced by keratinocytes, epithelial cells, macrophages, and B-cells. Little is known about the exact biological role of IL-19 in immunological regulation, although there is an increasing body of data demonstrating that IL-19 is associated with the development of Th2 responses and the pathogenesis of psoriasis. In this review, I shall attempt to discuss current knowledge about the role of IL-19 on macrophages and the potential role in inflammatory bowel disease.
