Figure 2From: Identification of target antigens of anti-endothelial cell and anti-vascular smooth muscle cell antibodies in patients with giant cell arteritis: a proteomic approachSerum IgG reactivity to far upstream element-binding protein 2 in sera of giant cell arteritis patients. Protein extract is from vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). (A) IgG reactivity to far upstream element-binding protein 2 (FUBP2) in five different pools of sera from three giant cell arteritis patients each (P1 to P5) and one pool from twelve healthy controls (HC). (B) FUBP2 spots are expressed in 3-D view for one representative serum pool of patients (top) and the HC pool (bottom). (C) Proteome of VSMCs showing the localisation of FUBP2 spots displayed in (A).Back to article page
