Figure 1.
Correlation of the expression of RNA (log2[fragments per kilobase million FPKM+1]) for the interferon-stimulated genes ISG15, USP18, DDX58, and IFIH1 in normal adult muscle biopsy specimens (NT) and biopsy specimens from adult myositis patients. IMNM = immune-mediated necrotizing myositis; AS = antisynthetase syndrome; DM = dermatomyositis; IBM = inclusion body myositis.
