Figure 1.

AR and TH gene expression profile of trauma and OA BMSCs. Gene expression of different AR subtypes and TH in untreated BMSCs isolated from trauma or OA donors in monolayer culture at day 0 and after 7 days (representative PCR gel image of one donor) and average score of gene expression relative to the expression of Glycerinaldehyd-3-phosphat-Dehydrogenase (GAPDH, n = 4, mean ± standard deviation). Data are shown as box plots where each box represents the 25th to 75th percentiles. The lines inside the boxes represent the median. Lines outside the boxes represent the 10th to 90th percentiles. Each black dot represents one individual donor.
