Figure 3

Saturation status of PIPs acyl chains of human prostate tissues. (A) All patients were subcategorized into two groups based on the number of double bonds in acyl chains. Percentages of each PIP with 0–2 double bonds in acyl chains (red) or with ≥3 double bonds in acyl chains (blue) in PCa (n = 16) and benign prostatic hyperplasia (n = 12) tissues are shown. The p values were determined using a chi-square test. (B) Comparison of PI levels dichotomised by saturation status in prostate tissues based on pathological T stage. The box-dot plot presents the levels of PI in human prostate cancer.
