Correlation of BPIFA1 and BPIFB1 protein levels in airway epithelium and lung function parameters of airflow limitation.

Notes: Spearman correlation analysis of BPIFA1 protein levels with post-bronchodilator values of FEV1 (A) and the ratio of FEV1 to FVC (FEV1/FVC) (B). Spearman correlation analysis of BPIFB1 protein levels with post-bronchodilator values of FEV1 (C) and FEV1/FVC (D).

Abbreviations: BPIF protein, bactericidal/permeability-increasing fold-containing protein; FEV1, forced expiratory volume in 1 second; FVC, forced vital capacity.
