Transcripts of RSAD2, CXCR3 and its ligands are more abundant in human carotid lesions where RSAD2 mRNA also correlates with CXCL10 and CXCL11 mRNA. The transcripts of (a) RSAD2, (b) CXCL9, (c) CXCL10, (d) CXCL11 and (e) CXCR3 in human atherosclerotic lesions (red circles) and adjacent intact tissues (blue circles) of matched patients with hypertension (n = 32) (GEO accession: GSE43292). Paired t-test followed by Benjamini and Hochberg corrections were employed to obtain adjusted p values and Pearson’s correlation was used to assess the relationship between RSAD2 mRNA and (f) CXCL9, (g) CXCL10 and (h) CXCL11 mRNA in human carotid lesions. Adjusted p values and Pearson’s correlation coefficients are indicated in the figures. p value < 0.05 is considered statistically significant. CXCR3, CXC chemokine receptor 3; CXCL9/10/11, CXC-motif chemokine 9/10/11; RSAD2, radical S-adenosyl-L-methionine domaine containing 2.
