Analysis by paired T-test of log-transformed receptor MFI (mean fluorescence intensity) representative of cell surface receptor density after NTHI or SP exposure, as compared to baseline receptor expression with representative p-values listed. Light grey shading for SR-AI and MARCO denote receptors reduced by both NTHI and SP. Italicized p-values did not reach statistical significance. Benjamini-Hochberg correction for multiple comparisons (false discovery rate) was done, accepting a threshold of 0.10 given the exploratory nature of the study, which was consistent with uncorrected p-values meeting the pre-specified significance level of ≤0.05.
