Expression of genes encoding modifiers of pSmad signaling in 15 weeks old db/db mice. (A) TGF-β2; (B) Activin A; (C) BAMBI; (D) Betaglycan; (E) CTGF; and (F) PAI-1. Values are relative mRNA levels corrected to housekeeping genes and displayed as boxes with whiskers showing minimum to maximum for a group of 10 mice.
