Induction of Tenogenic Differentiation Mediated by Extracellular Tendon Matrix and Short-Term Cyclic Stretching

Figure 3

Gene expression levels of tendon markers and osteopontin, presented as “fold change” (FC) to the monolayer controls which are depicted by the horizontal line at 0. Bars represent the median values and error bars the 95% confidence interval; marks significant differences compared to the monolayer control (); # means significant differences between the sample groups indicated (); stat: static; stim: mechanical stimulation.
