Figure 7

(A) Primary myofibroblasts in culture confirmed by αSMA (green) and Periostin (red) staining; scale bar equals 50 μm. (B) Relative Col1α1 gene expression in primary cardiac myofibroblasts with and without WNT inhibitor treatement revealed significant reduction in Col1α1 gene expression in response to WNT inhibitor treatment. Bars represent mean ± SD. N=4 replicates from independent experiments; *p=0.0265; Mann-Whitney test.
