Serum levels of microRNAs can specifically predict liver injury of chronic hepatitis B

Figure 1 Serum levels of microRNAs in chronic hepatitis B, nonalcohlic steatohepatitis and healthy donors. The levels of serum miR-122 (A), miR-638 (B), miR-572 (C), miR-575 (D), miR-744 (E) and miR-30c (F) in patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB) (n = 24), with nonalcohlic steatohepatitis (NASH) (n = 20) and healthy donors (Ctrl) (n = 24) were measured by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. The line at each group represents the median value of indicated miRNA. The values are normalized to miR-24 and shown in log₁₀ scale at y-axis. P values on the top are NASH vs Ctrl, on the left are CHB vs Ctrl and on the right are NASH vs Ctrl.
