Fig. (2) ELISA showing soluble MICA*008, *007 and *019 from cultured media of the fibroblasts (a total of 2.5 x105 fibroblasts in 5 ml culture media). Fibroblasts were transfected with pEGFPC3-MICA*008, pEGFPC3-MICA*007 and pEGFPC3-MICA*019. After 48-hours transfection, culture media were collected for MICA ELISA. Error bars indicate standard deviations.
