Extended Data Fig. 9. TGFβ-Smad3 activity in MuSCs with aging, Cyclin D1 deficiency, and pharmacologic modulation.
a-c, Western blots on freshly isolated MuSCs to assess for activating C-terminal phosphorylation of Smad3. Each lane’s phospho-Smad3 level was normalized first to Histone 3 and then to the grand mean of each blot; blots quantified in each figure contained equals numbers of each replicate type.
a, MuSCs were from Y(Veh), O(Veh), and O(LY) mice. Shown is a representative blot and quantification of two blots. Each lane represents MuSCs from one mouse (n=6 lanes per group).
b, MuSCs were from WT(Veh), HET(Veh), and HET(LY) mice. Shown is a representative blot and quantification of two blots. Each lane represents MuSCs from one mouse (n=6 lanes per group).
c, MuSCs were from WT(Veh), KO(Veh), and KO(LY) mice. Shown is a representative blot and quantification of two blots. Each lane represents MuSCs from one mouse (n=6 lanes per group). *P<0.05; one-tailed Mann-Whitney U-test in a-e.
