Vibration Induces BAFF Overexpression and Aberrant O-Glycosylation of IgA1 in Cultured Human Tonsillar Mononuclear Cells in IgA Nephropathy

Figure 2

Concentration of IgA1 (a) and aberrant O-glycosylation IgA1 level (b) in the supernatant of cells subjected to different time periods of vibration. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM. indicates significant difference from control (0 min) of IgAN group (). in (a) indicates significant difference from the IgAN group exposed to vibrations for 10 min (). IgAN, Immunoglobulin A nephropathy; SEM, standard error of the mean.
