From: Altered TGFB1 regulated pathways promote accelerated tendon healing in the superhealer MRL/MpJ mouse
MRL flexor tendons heal with reduced cellular proliferation. (A) Representative images of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) immunohistochemical (IHC) staining conducted before injury and over time post injury on 5 µm transverse paraffin sections and counterstained with hematoxylin, and then quantified (B) for percent PCNA-positive cells within the tendon and the surrounding peritendinous tissues (N = 5 per group, with n = 3–5 images (technical replicates) per animal). Scale bar = 200 microns.
