Altered pattern of tumor necrosis factor-alpha production in peripheral blood monocytes from Crohn's disease

Figure 2 Intracellular tumor necrosis factor-alpha expression in wild type or mutation-carrier patients. Intracellular TNF-α expression in basal conditions measured in peripheral monocytes derived from patients affected by Crohn’s disease (CD), grouped into Wild Type (WT) or mutation carriers (Mut) for the three NOD2 polymorphisms (R702W, G908R and L1007Pfs*2). Data are presented as mean ± SEM. No statistical significances was found.
