Correlation between serum anti-AQP4 Ab concentration and serum complement- ( -)mediated cytotoxicity. Anti-AQP4 Ab serum concentration and complement- ( -)mediated serum cytotoxicity were measured in 30 sera from 10 NMO patients with a cell-based assay using AQP4 expressing human 293 T cells and flow cytometry. Results are expressed in arbitrary units (AU/mL). The Pearson correlation coefficient ( ) was 0.87 ( ).
