Figure 1. — Increased level of ox-LDL and Lox-1 in patients with osteoarthritis are correlated with the total WOMAC score. A total of 40 cases of osteoarthritis (n=40) and 40 cases of normal controls (n=40) were included. (A) Relative Lox-1 expression and (B) levels of synovial fluid ox-LDL was determined by ELISA and quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction. Moreover, correlation analyses were performed between (C) ox-LDL level or (D) Lox-1 level and the total WOMAC score and (E) between ox-LDL level or Lox-1 level. *P<0.05 compared to normal control. WOMAC, Western Ontario and McMasters University Osteoarthritis Index; ox-LDL, oxidized low density lipoprotein; Lox-1, lectin-like ox-LDL receptor-1.
