Mean differences (SD) on antiinflammatory biomarkers. (a) Western-blot analysis of bound inhibitory protein (IκBα) in peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) cytosolic extracts (patients, n = 85; controls, n = 88); (b) Plasma levels of prostaglandin 15d-PGJ2 (patients, n = 85; controls, n = 104). (c) Western-blot analysis of peroxisome proliferator activated receptor γ (PPARγ; patients, n = 85; controls, n = 16). (d) Transcriptional activity of PPARγ (patients, n = 85; controls, n = 87) in PBMC nuclear extracts. AU, arbitrary units. Two-tailed t test was assessed for PPARγ protein levels, and for the rest of variables, 2-tailed nonparametric Mann-Whitney U test was used. ° represents an atypical value and * an extreme value.
