Fig 3. Few infiltrations
of pDCs in labial gland and theclinical correlation
analysis. a: Immunofluorescent results of 4 pSS patients who had labial
pathological report with typical focal lymphocytic infiltrations.b: Immunofluorescent colocalization of epithelial cells (CD326)
and IFN-α in salivary glands of pSS patients (n=2). c:Comparison of surface chemotactic receptors (MFI) in pDCs between pSS
and HCs, CCR2 (HC: n=11; pSS: n=11), CCR4 (HC: n=11; pSS: n=10), CCR5
(HC: n=12; pSS: n=12), CCR7 (HC: n=10; pSS: n=12), CCR10 (HC: n=14; pSS:
n=12). d: Correlation analysis of pDC percentage in PBMC and
serum IgG (n=30), IgA (n=29), anti-SSA IgG (n=23). Data are shown as
mean ± SEM. Unpaired two-tailed Student’s t-test, Linear regression and
Pearson’s correlation were performed for IgG and IgA, Spearman rank
correlation were performed for anti-SSA IgG.
