Figure 1. Relative gene expression of TNFB in controls and vitiligo patients.
(A) Expression of TNFB mRNA in 175 controls, 166 vitiligo patients, 122 generalized vitiligo patients and 44 localized vitiligo patients using Mann-Whitney Wilcoxon test. (B) Fold expression of TNFB mRNA in 166 vitiligo patients and 175 controls, as determined by 2−ΔΔCp method. (C) Expression of TNFB mRNA with respect to TNFB +252 A/G in 166 vitiligo patients and 175 controls using Mann-Whitney Wilcoxon test. (D) Expression of TNFB mRNA with respect to activity of the disease in 121 active vitiligo and 45 stable vitiligo patients using Mann-Whitney Wilcoxon test. (E) Expression of TNFB mRNA with respect to gender differences in 87 male and 79 female vitiligo patients using Mann-Whitney Wilcoxon test. (F) Expression of TNFB mRNA with respect to different age of onset groups in 166 vitiligo patients using Mann-Whitney Wilcoxon test.
