Figure 6From: Constitutive upregulation of the transforming growth factor-β pathway in rheumatoid arthritis synovial fibroblastsTransforming growth factor (TGF)-β1-stimulated mRNA expression for matrix-metalloprotease (MMP)-11 in osteoarthritis (OA) synovial fibroblast (SFBs) (n = 4) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) SFBs (n = 3), as assessed by qPCR. Bars indicate the medians ± 75th and 25th percentiles relative to the expression of aldolase, expressed as percent of the unstimulated control (= 100%). *p ≤ 0.05 compared to OA.Back to article page
