Tukey boxplot of differentially expressed erythrocyte microRNAs confirmed by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. Tukey boxplot of relative expression (2^-deltaCT) (y-axis on a log scale) of erythrocyte microRNAs in relapsing-remitting MS patients (n = 20; green) and healthy controls (n = 18; blue). The blue dot represents an outlier defined as deviating ≥1.5 fold from the upper/lower quartile. * p < 0.05; ** p < 0.01; NS – not significant (p > 0.05)
