Fig. 3: IgA titers negatively correlated with sCD14 in peripheral blood during SIVmac infections.
From: NK cell spatial dynamics and IgA responses in gut-associated lymphoid tissues during SIV infections
a IgA titers in plasma from MAC and AGM (non-infected (SIVneg) and chronically SIV-infected (SIVchronic)) (n = 6-8 animals). A nonparametric Mann–Whitney test (p ≤ 0.05 = *; p ≤ 0.01 = **; p ≤ 0.001 = ***) was used. b Plasma titers of sCD14 from non-infected (SIVneg) and chronically SIV-infected (SIVchronic) MAC and AGM (n = 6 non-infected animals per species, n = 8 chronic MAC and n = 7 chronic AGM). From Figure A to C, a nonparametric Mann–Whitney test (p ≤ 0.05 = *; p ≤ 0.01 = **; p ≤ 0.001 = ***) was used. Each dot represents an individual animal. c Correlation between microbial translocation marker sCD14 in plasma and plasmatic-IgA in MAC (non-infected animals in light brown and chronically infected animals in dark brown) (n = 6–8 animals). d Correlation between inflammatory (LBP) and plasmatic-IgG in MAC (non-infected animals in light brown and chronically infected animals in dark brown) (n = 6–8 animals). Spearman r test was used (p ≤ 0.05 = *; p ≤ 0.01 = **; p ≤ 0.001 = ***). Each dot represents an individual animal.
