Fig. 6

Reactive oxygen species generation in primary neutrophils stimulated resistin in the absence and presence of phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA). Asterisk denotes statistical significance (P < 0.05) compared to matched control samples (set to 1.0, denoted by the dotted line). Resistin alone does not cause a decrease in reactive oxygen species generation (P = 0.84), although addition of the stimulant PMA causes a statistically significant decrease in the ability of neutrophils to generate reactive oxygen species (P = 0.003)
