Fig 1
Detailed analysis of serum fatty acids by histologic disease activity.
Blood was obtained from each subject and processed within 30 min to obtain serum. Serum fatty acid levels were measured as described in the Methods. Disease categories were based on maximal tissue histopathology. n = 23 for control (Ctrl) and n = 101 for UC subjects. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001 versus control.
