Figure 3.
ASC is elevated in serum-derived EV of stroke patients. Protein levels in pg/ml of ASC (A), IL-1β (B) and IL-18 (C) in serum-derived EV from patients with stroke and healthy donors. p-value of significance is shown above each box plot. Box and whiskers are shown for the 5th and 95th percentile. N.S., Not Significant. ASC: N = 16 control and 16 stroke; IL-1β: N = 10 control and 9 stroke; and IL-18: N = 16 control and 13 stroke. (D) ROC curves for ASC (blue), IL-1β (black) and IL-18 (green). ASC: N = 16 control and 16 stroke; IL-1β: N = 10 control and 9 stroke; and IL-18: N = 16 control and 13 stroke.
