Mean intensity of staining and % area of staining of decorin (a,e), biglycan (b,f), COL1A1 (c,g), and COL3A1 (d,h). HYP-L indicates group of swines that received cholesterol-high-fat diet but no surgery. HYP-L RCI indicates uninjured Achilles tendon of the swines underwent either injury or injury + repair surgery to the infraspinatus tendon and cholesterol-high-fat diet. CONT indicates control group of swines that received normal diet and no surgery. The images were acquired using 20x objective. Values are shown as mean ± SD; n=3–4). * P<0.05, ** P<0.01, *** P<0.001, **** P<0.0001.
