Figure 2. TGFβ3 treated cushions compact less than controls, but are under more residual tension.

Figure 2

A) Bar graph of area ratios calculated from before and after images of 24 hour TGFβ3 treated cushions. Representative cushion images shown, scale bar = 100 µm. mean ± SEM, n≥12, *p<0.0001, t-test B) Opening angle of 24 hour TGFβ3 treated cushions is greater than control, indicating tissue is under greater residual tension. Inset shows representative images with opening angle, θ. mean ± SEM, n = 10–11, *p<0.001 t-test.
