Identification of genotype-discriminatory mediators by Mouse Cytokine Array in tumour lysates of wildtype (PropWT) and properdin-deficient (PropKO) mice.

	PropWT (n = 3)	PropKO (n = 3)	p-Value
TIMP1	45.72 ± 4.19	10.41 ± 0.91	<0.002
IL-13	5.24 ± 1.36	0.88 ± 0.35	<0.05
CCL2	97.49 ± 1.11	1.37 ± 0.17	<0.0001
CCL3	46.31 ± 3.01	0.93 ± 0.41	<0.0002

Three tumours of comparable sizes from each genotype were pooled, and extracted protein was analysed using Mouse Cytokine Array (R&D Systems). Reactivities were quantified densitometrically. Data are expressed as means ± SD and were analysed by unpaired two-tailed t-test.
