Figure 5

Serum analyses in patient 4 before and after treatment with etoposide. Serum concentration of total HMGB1 and hyperacetylated HMGB1 are presented in (A) with the different HMGB1 redox-forms illustrated in (B). Two serum samples were analyzed where normalized levels of (A) HMGB1, (C) ferritin and (D) IFN-γ were documented after intervention with etoposide and subsequent clinical improvement. IL-18 declined but was still elevated (E) while MCP-1 increased (F). MP-pulses: methylprednisolone pulses.
