15-PGDH expression is associated with leukocyte markers in AAA.

<p><b>A</b>, Box plot of expression levels of cell markers in controls (NA, n = 15) and abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA, n = 39) samples; * p<0.05, *** p<0.001 when compared with NA samples. <b>B</b> Statistical correlations between transcript levels of 15-PGDH and endothelial cell markers in AAA samples; <b>C</b>, statistical correlations between transcript levels of 15-PGDH and leukocyte markers in AAA samples. Pearson Product Moment Correlation after logarithmic transformation of data and Bonferroni’s correction for multiple testing was applied; (n = 39.)
