Figure 2. MKP-1 and IL-8 gene expression by PBMC of SR and SS asthmatics as detected by real time PCR prior- (Visit 1) and 30 days post prednisone burst (Visit 3).

Figure 2

MKP-1 (panel A) and IL-8 mRNA (panel B) expression is significantly higher in freshly isolated PBMC from SR than SS asthmatics at Visit 1, but not Visit 3 (the difference between SR and SS asthma groups was analyzed by nonparametric Mann-Whitney test).
