Figure 6. Gene expression of BMP target gene ID1 and tendon marker scleraxis.

Figure 6

Box plot graphs represent qRT-PCR values given as mean normalised expression relative to 18S rRNA and the untreated control (reference line) using an efficiency corrected formula (n = 6). Stars indicate significant differences to the untreated control. (A) ID1-expression was significantly increased at all concentrations and time points with the strongest increase at 8 h compared to the unstimulated control (*p = 0.002). (B) The expression of scleraxis was up-regulated at both concentrations for all time points and showed the strongest increase after 8 h of BMP-7 stimulation (*p = 0.002).
