DPC-S | DPC-FS | P | |
---|---|---|---|
BDNF | 1.0 ± 0.1 | 1.2 ± 0.2 | 0.23 |
NT-3 | 1.0 ± 0.0 | 0.3 ± 0.0 | <0.001 |
GDNF | 1.0 ± 0.0 | 0.9 ± 0.1 | 0.08 |
VEGF | 1.0 ± 0.0 | 3.8 ± 0.1 | <0.001 |
The ratio of mRNA expression in DPC-S for each neurotrophic factor was averaged, and the mean value was standardized to 1.0 for comparison with DPC-FS. The values are expressed as the mean ± SE. Significant differences between the two groups were determined by Student’s t-test (n = 6).
