Figure 1 Circulating TG3-IgA immune complexes by sandwich ELISA in plasma/serum samples. (a) Untreated patients with DH (n = 35), healthy subjects (n = 16), and patients with pemphigus vulgaris (PV) (n = 12) and with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) (n = 12). (b) Patients with DH (n = 10) before and after gluten-free diet (GFD) (the two data are connected by lines), as described in Supplementary Materials and Methods. Absorbance was measured at 450 nm (A450). Each symbol represents the mean absorbance of triplicates for a single patient. Horizontal lines and the rectangle boxes indicate the median and interquartile range for the respective group of patients. Statistical significance is evaluated according to multiple comparisons of mean ranks of all groups (a) and Wilcoxon test (b).
