Figure 2. Filarial lymphedema is associated with elevated levels of TIMP-1 and 2.

Figure 2

(A) Plasma levels of TIMP-1, -2, -3, and -4 from filarial lymphedema individuals with active infection [CP Ag+] (n = 28) and asymptomatic infected [INF] (n = 66–76) individuals were measured by ELISA. (B) Plasma levels of TIMP-1, -2, -3, and -4 from filarial lymphedema individuals without active infection [CP Ag−] (n = 66–76) and endemic normal [EN] (n = 73) individuals were measured by ELISA. P values were calculated using the Mann-Whitney test.
