Kindlin-2 expression is downregulated in TMJs in aged mice. a Representative SO&FG and IF staining of TMJ sections from healthy adult (4 months) and aged (18–22 months) mice. Higher-magnification images (red and green dashed boxes) are shown in lower panels. Scale bar: 50 μm. b OARSI score. c Safranin O-positive areas. d Percentage of Kindlin-2-positive cells in TMJ sections from adult and aged mice. Results are expressed as mean ± standard deviation (s.d.). n = 10 mice per group. ***P < 0.001
