From: HMGB2 is a novel adipogenic factor that regulates ectopic fat infiltration in skeletal muscles
The expression of Hmgb2 evoked and peaked prior to that of adipogenic master regulators in rat SSP muscles after tendon transection. (a) Ratio of the SSP muscle weight to the body weight in the rat RCT model after tendon transection. (b) The representative HE images of different two SSP muscle samples from RCT side 16 weeks after tendon transection (original magnification, x40, each). (c) Quantitative PCR analysis of SSP muscles after tendon transection. n = 6 for each time point. *p < 0.05.
