miR-106a Is Downregulated in Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells of Chronic Hepatitis B and Associated with Enhanced Levels of Interleukin-8

Figure 2

Serum IL-8 protein and mRNA levels were significantly increased in CHB patients and were positively correlated with serum ALT. (a) Serum IL-8 and PBMCs IL-8 mRNA of 56 CHB patients and 40 healthy controls were assessed by ELISA and qRT-PCR. (b) Both serum IL-8 and PBMCs IL-8 mRNA were positively correlated with serum ALT levels. (c) Both serum IL-8 and PBMCs IL-8 mRNA were positively correlated with TBIL levels.
