BMP-7 promotes activation of the BMP-7/Smad1/5/8 signaling pathway. (A) The protein expression levels of BMP-7, p-Smad1/5/8 and Smad1/5/8 were detected by western blot analysis. β-actin was used as a loading control. Results of densitometric analysis for (B) BMP-7 and (C) p-Smad1/5/8/Smad1/5/8 protein expression. The results are presented as the mean + standard deviation (n=6), and are representative of three independent experiments. *P<0.05, **P<0.01 and ***P<0.001 vs. control group; #P<0.05 and ##P<0.01 vs. untreated thermal injury group.
