Fig. 3From: Serum proteomic identification and validation of two novel atherosclerotic aortic aneurysm biomarkers, profilin 1 and complement factor DPFN1 and CFD levels in unfractionated serum samples of patients with TAA and HC subjects. A Western blot analysis of PFN1 and CFD in four individual serum samples without pre-treatment from patients with TAA and those from HC subjects. B, C The histograms indicate quantitated band intensity data of (B) PFN1 and (C) CFD in the serum samples of patients with TAA and HC subjects. HC subjects, No. 1–4; TAA patients, No. 5–8. Significant differences were observed between the TAA and HC groups. Images of entire western blots of PFN1 and CFD are shown in Additional File 8Back to article page
