Figure 2From: Diclofenac and triamcinolone acetonide impair tenocytic differentiation and promote adipocytic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cellsEffect of GDF-7 on differentiation of MSC to tenocytes. Cells were grown in the medium with or without GDF-7 (50 ng/ml). Gene expression of tenocyte markers TNMD (A) and CollIα1 (B) was analyzed on days 0, 3, 6, and 9 using qPCR. Each data point represents the mean ± SD of the three samples (*P < 0.01, #P < 0.05).Back to article page
