Data are expressed as fold changes (mean ± SD, n = 10), normalized to GAPDH mRNA expression, where the values for the control mice were set at 1.0. Fold change = 2−ΔΔCt; ΔCt = Cttarget gene−CtGAPDH; ΔΔCt = ΔCttarge group−ΔCtcontrol. Data are mean ± SD (n = 10). ** p < 0.05 by ANOVA; # p < 0.05 by t test; * p < 0.05, vs. Fgfr1, fibroblast growth factor receptor 1.
