TABLE 5.
Quantification of fibers and mucus as a ratio to whole area at the liver in each group of mice.
Groups | Area percentage |
NC | 1.03 ± 0.58 |
MC | 33.02 ± 11.39 |
ADV-Gli1 | 39.81 ± 5.67a |
Gli1-shRNA | 26.06 ± 1.29b |
ADV-Gli2 | 49.81 ± 8.57c |
Gli2-shRNA | 17.55 ± 0.66d |
NC, normal control; MC, model control. Values are given as the mean ± SD.
aADV-Gli1 vs. MC, t = −1.20, P = 0.27; bGli1-shRNA vs. MC, t = 1.36, P = 0.21; cADV-Gli2 vs. MC, t = −2.63, P = 0.03; dGli2-siRNA vs. MC, t = 3.03, P = 0.04.
