Fig 5. Oxidative burst capacity of peripheral blood monocytes in patients with chronic liver disease (CLD).

Fig 5

(A) Representative flow cytometry plots highlighting CD14+ monocyte generation of free oxygen radicals at baseline or upon stimulation with opsonised zymosan. The proportion of monocytes capable of generating reactive oxygen species (B and C) and monocyte capacity to produce ROS (D and E) following stimulation with opsonised zymosan in control subjects and CLD patients with no advanced fibrosis (No adv.), cirrhosis or decompensated cirrhosis (Decomp). (F and G) Correlation between monocyte oxidative burst capacity and patient serum levels. (Data represented as mean +SEM, * P<0.05, **P<0.01, ***P<0.001; DCFH-DA, dichlorodihydrofluorescein).
