Fig. 3. Changes in C-type lectin expression at different stages of HCV infection.

Fig. 3

Each dot plot compares the overall amount of NK cells expressing relevant NKG2 family members including the inhibitory heterodimer NKG2A/CD94 and the activating NKG2D receptors in HCV-negative (○) individuals with that of patients with acute (▲), chronic (△) and resolved (▼) HCV infection. Red ▲, acute HCV with subsequent progression to chronic infection; blue ▲, acute HCV with subsequent resolution of infection. Horizontal lines indicate the median percentages. p values < 0.05 after adjustment for multiple comparisons are indicated.
