Figure 6. Correlations of circulating S100-MP populations with the NAS score and between MP populations.
(A) Correlations of CD4+, CD8+, CD14+, CD15+, CD41+ and iNKT (Valpha24/Vbeta11 double positive) S100-MP with the NAS score using the Pearson algorithm. (B) The strongest correlations between S100-MP subsets for each liver disease are shown. The strong correlation between CD14+ and iNKT S100-MP supports a tight functional link between these inflammatory cell types in NAFL/NASH. Variations in numbers are due to limitation of serum.
