From: Equine osteoarthritis modifies fatty acid signatures in synovial fluid and its extracellular vesicles

Fig. 1

The proportions (mol-%) of selected saturated fatty acids (FAs) (panel A), monounsaturated FAs (panel B), and polyunsaturated FAs (panel C) in the equine synovial fluid (SF) and its ultracentrifuged extracellular vesicle-enriched pellet (EV) (mean + SD, n = 8 per sample group). Note that in panel A, 16:0 and 18:0 values are expressed on the left y-axis and the values of other FAs on the right y-axis. In panel B, 18:1n-9 values are expressed on the right y-axis and, in panel C, 18:2n-6 values are expressed on the left y-axis. SF 22:6n-3 also includes an unknown artefact. CL, contralateral; OA, osteoarthritis; nd, not determined. * = statistically significant difference between SF and EV (t-test, p < 0.05)
