Extracellular HMGB1 Induced Glomerular Endothelial Cell Injury via TLR4/MyD88 Signaling Pathway in Lupus Nephritis
Figure 1
The level of SDC-1 was associated with the levels of VCAM-1 and proteinuria in LN patients. (a, b) ELISA showing the levels of serum SDC-1 and VCAM-1 in the control and LN patients. (c, d) The level of serum SDC-1 in LN patients was correlated with 24 h proteinuria (, ) and serum VCAM-1 (, ). (e) The expression of SDC-1 protein in renal glomeruli cells of LN patients was detected by IF staining. SDC-1: syndecan-1; VCAM-1: vascular cell adhesion molecule-1; ELISA: enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay; IF: immunofluorescence; LN: lupus nephritis.
