(A) Representative LC-MS-MS chromatograph for LPC16:0, LPC18:0, and LPC18:1 in BALF samples from non-asthmatic and asthmatic subjects; dashed line=non-asthmatic subjects; solid line=moderate-asthmatic subjects; LPC19:0 is internal standard. (B) LPC16:0, LPC18:0, and LPC18:1 reported as average ng/mL+SE; non-asthmatics (n=8), mild-asthmatics (n=3), moderate-asthmatics (n=3). *P<0.05. **P=0.01.
