TSC22D3 and CCL2 mRNA expression was analyzed in liver samples from NAFLD patients, according to GSE48452 (NASH patients) and GSE49541 (NAFLD patients) cohorts accessed in Gene Expression Omnibus. A, B TSC22D3 mRNA expression in NASH patients. Samples were classified as A high fat score when presenting a score of ≥70 (n = 9) and B fibrosis stages 1–4, representing the samples in this score range (n = 14). C, D TSC22D3 (C) and CCL2 (D) gene expression in NAFLD patients with mild (stages 0–1; n = 40) and advanced (stages 3–4; n = 34) fibrosis. E, F Pearson correlation between TSC22D3 and CCL2 mRNA expression in NAFLD patients. E Pearson correlation coefficient in NAFLD patients with mild (stages 0–1) and (F) advanced (stages 3–4) fibrosis. Data are presented as a box and whiskers plot. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01.
