CCL21 serum levels and correlation analysis in ELISA 1, Luminex and ELISA 2. (A) The mean serum levels of CCL21 in ELISA 1 were higher in SSc patients compared to healthy controls (i) in Luminex (ii) and ELISA 2 (iii). (B) In ELISA 1, CCL21 serum levels were higher in patients diagnosed with PAH compared to patients with no PH (i) while similar in PAH patient and no PH (ii) in Luminex. The mean serum levels of CCL21 in ELISA 2 however were, like in ELISA 1, higher in PAH patients compared to those without PH (iii). (C) The correlation of CCL21 serum levels between ELISA 1 and Luminex (r=0.515, p<0.001) (i) and the correlation of CCL21 serum levels between ELISA 2 and Luminex (r=0.52, p<0.001) (ii) were poor. However, the correlation of CCL21 serum levels between ELISA 2 and ELISA 1 (r=0.788, p<0.001) (iii) were good.
