Correlations of PPP-associated miRNAs with IL-6. Relative expression of the miRNAs measured in the PPPs, normalised to CEL-miR-39 and PPP count, and IL-6 were log transformed and correlated using the nonparametric Spearman’s Correlation co-efficient. Data was considered significant with a p value < 0.05. (a) miR-122 and (b) miR-200a both significantly correlated with IL-6 while (c) the association with let-7e was not significant, but approached significance. (d) Levels of baseline IL-6 were significantly increased in liver cases compared to controls. Matching xy pairs were available for 30 individuals in the miR-122 analysis and 31 individuals in the miR-200a and let-7e analyses.
