HOXB7 and bFGF expression in MF-AT treated with SF. a HOXB7 protein expression in MF-AT by IHC. Analysis was performed 1 or 5 days after treatment with SF or maintenance medium. Photomicrographs were acquired using an Axio Imager M2 (Zeiss) with an EC Plan Neofluar ×40/0.75 objective. b, c qRT-PCR analysis of HOXB7 (b) and bFGF (c) mRNA expression levels in MF-AT 1 or 5 days after treatment with SF or maintenance medium (*time p = 0.0003 and treatment p = 0.04 for HOXB7; *time p = 0.000005 and treatment p = 0.03 for bFGF; two-way ANOVA).
