Impact of acute GvHD onset on the kinetics of EV membrane protein expression. Proportional change of fluorescence levels of CD146, total EV concentration, CD140a+ EV concentration and CD31+ EV concentration (left side, from top to bottom), CD120a+ EV concentration, CD144+ EV concentration, CD26+ EV concentration, and fluorescence levels of CD30 from precipitated EVs at different time points before and after aGvHD onset and compared to the pre-transplant baseline values. Dashed black line: pre-transplant levels; dashed red line: time of aGvHD onset; circle and star dots represent outliers (>1.5 box length from median) and extreme values (>3 box length from median), respectively. Significant mean differences before the onset (p ≤ 0.05) between patients with aGvHD (red) and without (blue) are indicated.
