Figure 9.

Expression patterns of AMP genes (lysozyme: (a,b); Lumbr: (c,d); LuRP: (e,f); lysenin: (g,h)) during anterior (a,c,e,g) and posterior (b,d,f,h) restoration from 1 to 4 weeks. Gene expressions of regenerating blastema were compared to intact ends. The boxes represent interquartile ranges (IQR), whiskers signify lowest and highest values, horizontal lines designate the median of four independent (n = 4) trials that were executed in duplicates. The significance of the data was estimated by one-way ANOVA with Dunnett’s post-hoc test with GraphPad Prism software (* p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01). RPL17 mRNA level used for normalization. A.U. arbitrary unit.
