Elevated expression of PDIA3 and SCGB1A1 in patients with IPF. (A) PDIA3 mRNA levels in control (n=132) and patients with IPF (n=160). (B) and (C) Western blot and quantitation of PDIA3 protein expression, control (n=17) and patients with IPF (n=15). Significance was based on unpaired two-tailed t-test and non-parametric Spearman correlation (rs) non-parametric Mann-Whitney t-test. Error bars represent ±SEM for the densitometry and ±SD for the mRNA analysis. GAPDH, glyceraldehyde phosphate dehydrogenase; IPF, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis; PDIA3, protein disulfide isomerase A3.
