Expression of AIM2 in Rheumatoid Arthritis and Its Role on Fibroblast-Like Synoviocytes

Figure 1

The differences in AIM2 pathway-related molecules in sera among HCs, OA, and RA patients. The HCs expressed obviously higher level of AIM2 than OA and RA patients (a), and ASC, caspase-1, and IL-1β expressed obviously higher in RA patients than HCs (b–d). No statistical differences of these molecules between OA and RA (a–d). , , and .
