Proinflammatory and Anabolic Gene Expression Effects of Platelet-Rich Gel Supernatants on Equine Synovial Membrane Explants Challenged with Lipopolysaccharide

Figure 2

Box plot of median relative nuclear factor kappa B (NFB) gene expression. Lowercase letters denote significant differences between synovial membrane explant (SME) groups treated with leukoconcentrated platelet-rich gel (Lc-PRG) and leukoreduced platelet-rich gel (Lr-PRG) supernatants at different concentrations (25 and 50%). Groups with the same lowercase letter are not significantly different. ∘ denotes an outlier value, whereas ⋆ denotes extreme value; both symbols show nonparametric data.
