Figure 1

Measurement of anti-HERV-K (HML-2) Env and Gag antibodies in psoriatic patients. Graphs represent the detection of IgM against recombinant Env transmembrane (recTM), recombinant Env surface unit (recSU) and recombinant Gag capsid (recCA) proteins (A) or IgG against recTM, recSU and recCA (B) and individual HERV-K (HML-2) Gag peptides (C) in healthy donor (white dots, n = 16) and psoriatic (black dot, n = 28) sera. The figure shows the representative results of three independent experiments. In all graphs data represent mean and standard error of mean (SEM). A p value <0.05 was considered as significant. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001.
