Figure 3. No difference in EGC-derived soluble factors expression between control and CD EGC.

Study of the expression of four glial mediators (IL6, TGF-β1, EGF and glutathione GSH) was performed by ELISA (b,d,h), Western-Blot (f) or qPCR of the mediator or of its producing enzyme as GCLc (glutamate-cysteine ligase, catalytic subunit) (a,c,e,g). n = 11–12 control EGC and n = 5–10 CD EGC; Mann-Whitney test.
