Figure 3. Plasma sFasL is associated with CD27+ B-cell frequency in cirrhosis.

Figure 3

Representative histograms (A) and quantification (B) of membrane-associated FasL (mFasL) expression on CD3+CD4+ cells, CD3+CD8+ cells, CD3CD19+ cells and CD3CD14+ cells in HD (dashed) and CIR (solid). Box plots reflect median and interquartile range. P-value by Wilcoxon test. Plasma concentrations by ELISA in HD and CIR of (C) soluble FasL (sFasL), (D) CD40L (sCD40L) and (E) plasma endotoxin (LPS) by Limulus Amaeboctye Assay. Spearman rank correlations of (F) plasma sFasL, (G) plasma sCD40L, and (H) plasma endotoxin and CD27+ B-cell frequency in CIR (closed circles) and HD (open circles).
