Figure 1

TNF down-regulates ANKH and ENPP1 expression in human NP cells. (a) Gene expression of ANKH, ENPP1 and TNAP in primary bNP and primary hNP cells obtained from pediatric and adult patients; (b) effect of 20 ng/mL TNF treatment on ANKH and (c) ENPP1 gene expression in hNP (n = 4). Significance represents p < 0.05. Data analyzed using one-way ANOVA.
