HO-1 mRNA expression in PBMCs and PMNs from patients with BD. (a) Peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) heme oxygenase (HO)-1 mRNA expression in healthy controls (HC), and patients with active and inactive Behçet's disease (BD) were determined semiquantitatively by real-time PCR. Horizontal bars represent mean values of HO-1 mRNA. (b) Polymorphonuclear leukocyte (PMN) HO-1 mRNA expression levels of HC, and patients with active and inactive BD. *P < 0.05, as determined using the Kruskal-Wallis test with post-hoc Scheffe's test. AU, arbitrary unit; GAPDH, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase; NS, not significant.
