Figure 6

Polymerase chain reaction data from matrix metalloproteinase (MMP), link protein, and ADAMTS analysis, derived as described in Materials and methods and in Figures 5 and 7. Data are expressed as percentage of the gene expression in untreated cells, as standardised for GAPDH (glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase). The standard error of the mean is given (n = 4–5). ADAMTS, a disintegrin and metalloprotease with thrombospondin motifs; IL, interleukin.
