Fig 1. Mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC) isolation does not influence tracheal aspirate matricellular protein concentration.

Fig 1

Tracheal aspirate matricellular protein and secretory component of IgA (scIgA) concentrations were measured by ELISA or multiplex immune assay. The isolation of MSCs from tracheal aspirates had no influence on matricellular protein concentration. The data show individual matricellular protein levels normalized to scIgA concentration. Medians and interquartile ranges are shown. Statistical significance was determined by Mann-Whitney U test.
