Figure 3

SAT reduces proinflammatory and profibrotic markers in the plasma of asthmatics. All 21 volunteers were evaluated for the plasma levels of proinflammatory and profibrotic markers. Interleukin 1 beta (IL-1beta), interleukin 4 (IL-4), interleukin (IL-5), interleukin 6 (IL-6), interleukin 13 (IL-13), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), and thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP). The figures lacking a symbol indicating statistical significance mean that no significance was found.
