High-Expressed Macrophage Scavenger Receptor 1 Predicts Severity Clinical Outcome in Transplant Patient in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis Disease

Figure 1

The expression of CD86 in the lung tissue samples from PH and IPF patients. (a) Representative figure of CD86 expression in the fibrotic lung in the samples from the PAH or IPF patient. Bar: 100 μm. (b) The mean optical density of CD86-positive cells between PH and IPF subjects was digitized and analyzed on Image-Pro Plus software. (c) The mean optical density of CD86-positive cells in IPF subjects with (smoke) or without (none) smoke was analyzed. Data are expressed as the for each group, PAH, ; IPF, . ns: not significant (Student’s -test). (c) The mean optical density of CD86-positive cells between noninfection (non-inf, ) and smoke subjects () in IPF patients was analyzed. (d) The mean optical density of CD86-positive cells in IPF subjects with (K.P-inf, ) or without Klebsiella pneumoniae infection (non-inf, n =26) was analyzed. ns: not significant (Student’s -test).
