Fractalkine and TGF-β1 levels reflect the severity of chronic pancreatitis in humans

Figure 3 Serum MCP-1, TGF-β1, and s-fractalkine concentrations for each score of imaging tests in CP patients. Serum MCP-1, TGF-β1, and s-fractalkine concentrations were measured by ELISA for each score for pancreatic imaging tests. Healthy control (HC, n = 116), score 1 on pancreatic imaging tests (I1, n = 47), score 2 on pancreatic imaging tests (I2, n = 33) and score ≥ 3 on pancreatic imaging tests (> I3, n = 29). Bars represent the mean ± SD. ^aP < 0.05 vs healthy control, ^bP < 0.01 vs healthy control.
