Figure 8
The effect of trauma on Cx43 and TGFβ1 gene expression. Term human CAM and PAM specimens were cultured for up to four days after trauma. Gene expression of Cx43 (A) and TGFβ1 (B) were presented as ratio values and normalised to Day 1 controls. In all cases, error bars represent the mean and SEM values of 9 replicates from three separate donors, where (*, ** or ***) indicates significant comparisons for CAM or PAM specimens. All other comparisons (not indicated) were not significantly different.
