Regarding the expression of TNF-α, we observed that the group of subjects with moderate to severe fibrosis showed higher expression of this cytokine in classical (Figure 3(j)) (WS MFI = 321 (52–386), SEA MFI = 244 (47.4–324)), intermediate (Figure 3(k)) (WS MFI = 368 (73.1–413), SEA MFI = 261 (62.8–377)), and nonclassical monocytes (Figure 3(l)) (SEA MFI = 85.6 (24.3–123)), when compared to individuals without fibrosis (classical: WS MFI = 20.5 (5.32–86.9), SEA MFI = 20.5 (4.1–108); intermediate: WS MFI = 62.7 (17.4–129), SEA MFI = 48.7 (14.7–125); and nonclassical SEA MFI= 25.65 (8–112)). Here, TNF is linked to fibrosis.
