QPCR of CCL20 mRNA from 35 liver samples with normal histology (red bar) and 32 samples with fibrosis (blue bar) comprised of 11 with grade 1, 16 with grade 3 bridging fibrosis, and 5 with grade 4 cirrhosis. CCL20 mRNA levels were significantly increased (Mann–Whitney two-tailed p < 0.0001) in fibrosis
