Statistical analysis of CD4/HML-1 expression in groups A, B, and C for the different experimental conditions
| Condition | A v B v C (p) | A v B | Multiple comparison B v C | A v C |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| A = lymphocytes co-cultured with epithelial cells; B = lymphocytes co-cultured with epithelial cells but separated from them with a semipermeable 0.45 μm membrane; C = epithelial cells in culture medium alone (control group); A v B v C, results of repeated measures ANOVA; *p<0.05. | ||||
