The serum levels of type IV collagen 7s (a), hyaluronic acid (b), and WFA + -MBP (c) APRI (d), and FIB- index (e) are shown., p<.5;, p<.1 Kruskal-Wallis test with Dunn s multiple comparison test. The stage of fibrosis was assessed according to Brunt classification. Supplementary Figure S: Serum levels of YKL- in patients with HCV infection with different stages of fibrosis. Serum YKL- levels are shown in patients with HCV stratified by the stage of fibrosis (METAVIR classification). p<.5, p<.1, by Kruskal-Wallis test with Dunn s multiple comparison test. HV, healthy volunteers Supplementary Figure S: ROC analyses of serum YKL-, other markers and fibrosis scores for the diagnosis of advanced fibrosis in patients with NAFLD. This figure shows ROC curves of YKL-, type IV collagen 7s, hyaluronic acid, WFA + - MBP, APRI, FIB- index, and the prediction model for NAFLD established by YKL- and type IV collagen 7s as a diagnostic marker of advanced fibrosis (Stage - vs. Stage -). Supplementary Figure S: Expression and production of YKL- from macrophages in vitro.

6 Primary macrophages were generated from monocytes obtained from healthy donors as described in Materials and Methods. a: The mrna levels of YKL- in M-CSFdifferentiated macrophages were examined on day 5, 6 and 7 of the culture. b: The supernatants were collected from day 7 macrophages stimulated with (conc.) TNF-α and/or (conc.) IL-1β. The YKL- levels in the supernatants were assayed by ELISA. p<.5, p<.1 by Student t-test. Supplementary Figure S5: Serum YKL- levels were not correlated with serum TNF levels and serum IL-1 levels. The correlations between serum YKL- levels and serum TNF or IL-1 levels were assessed by Spearman s rank-correlation coefficient. The p-values and correlation coefficients are depicted in each plot. Supplementary Figure S6: Serum YKL- levels in CHC patients with or without HCC. Serum YKL- levels in chronic hepatitis and liver cirrhosis patients with or without HCC are shown. p<.5, by Kruskal-Wallis test with Dunn s multiple comparison test
