Figure 5. The expression of GCR isoforms in PBMC from SR and SS asthmatics prior- (Visit 1) and 30 days post prednisone burst (Visit 3) as detected by real time PCR.

Figure 5

GCR-beta (B), but not GCR-alpha (A) mRNA expression is significantly increased in freshly isolated PBMC of SR asthmatics, resulting in significantly lower molar ratio of GCR-alpha to –beta mRNA copies in the cells from SR as compared to SS asthmatics (C) at Visit 1, but not Visit 3 (the difference between SR and SS asthma groups was analyzed by nonparametric Mann-Whitney test).
