FliiTg/Tg mice adhesions express higher levels of TGFβ1 and lower levels of TGFβ3 than WT mice. (a) TGFβ1 expression levels in the tendon adhesions and (b) surrounding dermis show significantly elevated expression in FliiTg/Tg mice compared with WT mice. (c) TGFβ3 expression levels in the tendon adhesions and (d) surrounding dermis show significantly elevated expression in WT mice compared with FliiTg/Tg mice. Data represented as mean ± SEM. *p ≤ 0.05, **p ≤ 0.01. n = 6
