a Identification of human tenocytes. Collagen type I and vimentin were positively expressed, and Collagen type III was negatively expressed. b mRNA expression of type I collagen in human Achilles tenocytes. The black and gray bars represent the Dex− and Dex+ groups, respectively. The asterisk represents a significant change between the two groups. c Protein expression of type I collagen in human Achilles tenocytes. Relative expression levels were normalized to GAPDH
