Fig. 2. IL-11Rα expression is markedly higher in ST lining fibroblasts and sublining fibroblasts and endothelial cells of RA compared to NL ST.

Fig. 2

A. STs from NL, OA and RA were stained with anti-IL-11Rα Ab (original magnification x 200) and (B) staining was scored on a scale of 0–5 in the lining, sublining and endothelial cells, n=8−9. C. The IL-11Rα expression was quantified in NL and RA PB in vitro differentiated macrophages (MΦs), RA ST fibroblasts and HUVECs by Western blot analysis using anti-IL-11Rα Ab, n=5. D. RA ST serial sections were stained with Abs to anti-IL-11Rα, CD68, VWF or Vimentin to establish which cell types express IL-11Rα, n=5. E. To confirm serial section studies, individual (red or green) as well as the overlapping (yellow) immunofluorescence staining was shown of RA STs that were stained with Abs to anti-IL-11R (green) or cell markers per slide including CD68 (red), VWF (red) or Vimentin (red) (original magnification x 400), n=5. Values are the mean ± SE. * represents p <0.05.
