Figure 1. Analysis of c-Fos protein levels in response to Fluid Flow (FF).

Figure 1

(A) Western blot analysis of c-Fos protein in Pyk2+/+ and Pyk2−/− osteoblasts exposed to 30 minutes of FF (F) or maintained in static culture conditions (S). (B) Western blot analysis of c-Fos protein in FAK+/+ and FAK−/− osteoblasts exposed to 30 minutes of FF (F) or maintained in static culture conditions (S). Vinculin was analyzed as a loading control. Graph represents quantification of c-Fos protein levels expressed as raw densitometry units. Experiments were performed in triplicate, and n≥3 for each experimental group in each trial. Error bars represent standard error. aStatistically significant difference between static and FF (p<0.05).
