Figure 7
Mast cell expression of IL-6 in parenchyma in patients with CF (A), and mast cell expression of TGF-β in parenchyma in IPF patients (B). Overall significance for total mast cell expression in different parenchyma is shown in each picture. Significance to healthy controls is shown as: p < 0.05 for total mast cell expression (*), as well as MCT (#) and MCTC (+), and to normal CF parenchyma as: p < 0.05 for total mast cell expression (×) and MCT (●).
