Site-Specific Analysis of Inflammatory Markers in Discoid Lupus Erythematosus Skin

Figure 4

Comparisons of staining of T cell, B cell, and macrophage markers (CD3, CD4, CD8, CD20, CD68, CXCR3, CXCL10, and TIA-1) in the deep dermis of DLE lesional skin (𝑁=23), psoriasis lesional skin (𝑁=11), and normal skin (𝑁=5). DLE lesional skin expressed higher amounts of CD3⁺ T cells, CD8⁺ T cells, CD20⁺ B cells, and CD68⁺ cells than at least one of the control populations studied. *𝑃<0.01; **𝑃<0.001; ***𝑃<0.0001.
