Platelet Concentration in Platelet-Rich Plasma Affects Tenocyte Behavior In Vitro
Figure 7
Platelet-gel-released supernatant affects scleraxis expression. The effects of different PG-released supernatant concentrations on scleraxis expression. The figures were cropped for more clarity; the removed areas contained no bands. Lane 1: negative control (cells grown in medium + 1% FBS). Lane 2: positive control (cells grown in complete medium). Lane 3: cells treated with 0.5 × 106 plt/μL. Lane 4: cells treated with 1 × 106 plt/μL. Lane 5: cells treated with 2 × 106 plt/μL. Lane 6: cells treated with 3 × 106 plt/μL. Actin detection was utilized as loading control. Values from densitometric analysis are shown on base of each protein band and were calculated as described in the Materials and Methods section.
