Figure 1

(a) Showing apoptosis in peripheral blood lymphocytes by flow-cytometry using Annexin V and propidium of one of the controls. The viable cells are 99%. The early apoptotic cells are 0.29%, the late apoptotic cells are 0.06%. (b) Showing apoptosis in peripheral blood lymphocytes by flow-cytometry using Annexin V and propidium of an ulcerative colitis patient at flare. The viable cells are 52.2%. The early apoptotic cells are 47.3%. The late apoptotic cells are 0.2%. (c) Showing apoptosis in peripheral blood lymphocytes by flow-cytometry using Annexin V and propidium of a Crohn’s disease patient at flare. The viable cells are 51.4%. The early apoptotic cells are 47.7%. The late apoptotic cells are 0.58%.
