Figure 6. Human lung also exhibits age-dependent downregulation of MRC2 and cell-mediated collagen uptake in fibroblasts.

Figure 6

(A and B) Q-RT-PCR of whole-lung lysates from humans of different ages for MRC2 is displayed according to age (A) or by group (B); N = 17 total, 8–9 per group. (C and D) Collagen uptake from human lung fibroblasts from humans of different ages is displayed according to age (C) or by group (D); N = 13 total, 6–7 per group. Statistics: (A and C) Pearson’s correlation with linear correlation shown as well as 95% confidence interval (dotted lines); (B and D) Student’s t test. *P < 0.05.
