Systemic sclerosis (SSc) serum induces endothelial cell apoptosis and E-selectin expression in neutrophil co-cultures. (A) Changes in apoptosis and (B) changes in E-selectin expression of endothelial cells when incubated with individual control and SSc serum samples (n=17). While there were marked variations in responses, particularly for SSc serum, both apoptosis and E-selectin expression were significantly enhanced after incubation with SSc serum compared with the effects of control serum. (C) Summary data shown as mean±SD values (n=17). Rel MFI, mean fluorescence intensity corrected to levels in media alone.
