PCR results for MMP-8, MMP-9 and PAF-R. Representative real-time PCR experiments for expression of MMP-8 (upper), MMP-9 (middle) and PAF-R (bottom) mRNAs in human cervix from the C (n = 11), R (n = 10) and NR (n = 4) groups respectively. The values of relative expression of target genes were normalized against cyclophilin A and displayed in arbitrary units. The "box-and-whisker plot" represents the median value with 50% of all data falling within the box. The whiskers extend to the 5th and 95th percentiles. Boxes with different letter designations are significantly different, p < 0.05.
