Fig. 10From: Role of the SDF-1/CXCR4 signaling pathway in cartilage and subchondral bone in temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis induced by overloaded functional orthopedics in ratsImmunohistochemical staining and expression of a SDF-1, b CXCR4, c collagen II, and d MMP13 in the condylar tissue of rats in the blank control group (control + NS), experimental group (EXP + NS), experimental injection group (model + AMD3100), and non-model injection group (control + AMD3100) at 2, 4, and 8 weeks. Scale = 100 μm. All groups were compared with the control group, *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01Back to article page
