(f-h) The box plots illustrate differences in mRNA detection for the indicated genes between tissues from end stage lung fibrosis patients in (f) alveolar epithelial cells, (g) fibroblasts, and (h) macrophages when compared to control tissue. The boxes represent the interquartile range, the horizontal line in the box is the median, and the whiskers represent 1.5 times the interquartile range (Chicago cohort: ILD n = 9, controls n = 8; Nashville cohort: ILD n = 20, controls n = 10; Munich cohort: ILD n = 3, controls n = 11).
