CXCL8 and CXCL10 in synovial fluid of arthritis patients. (a) CXCL10 and (b) CXCL8 concentrations were measured by ELISAs in synovial fluids of patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS), psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and were compared with chemokine concentrations in the metabolic arthritis patients with crystal-induced arthritis (CA). The detection limits of the ELISAs for the synovial concentrations of CXCL8 and CXCL10 are indicated on the y axis (logarithmic scale) and were 0.25 ng/ml and 1 ng/ml, respectively. Statistical analysis was performed with the median levels (dashed bars) using the nonparametric Mann–Whitney U test.
