From: Analysis of transcriptomic data sets supports the role of IL-6 in NETosis and immunothrombosis in severe COVID-19

Fig. 3

Expression of genes functional in NETosis increases in lung with COVID-19 disease severity. Each bar represents the average log-gene expression in the lung of COVID-19 non-survivors (COVID-19 Lung; n = 2) and post-mortem lung tissue of uninfected individuals (Healthy Lung; n = 2) [15]. Error bar represents standard deviation of log-gene expression. Significance of up-regulation in severe illness was assessed by t-test and is indicated with an asterisk over the bars (* p < 0.1; ** p < 0.01). The genes functional in NETosis are up-regulated in the lungs of the patients with COVID-19
