Fig. 3From: Comparison of transforming growth factor beta expression in healthy and diseased human tendonQuantitative analysis of immunopositive staining showing dysregulation of TGFβ family proteins in diseased compared to healthy rotator cuff tendons. a TGFβ-1: healthy (n = 11), tendinopathic (n = 10), torn (n = 10); b TGFβ R1: healthy (n = 10), tendinopathic (n = 10), torn (n = 9); and c TGFβ R2: healthy (n = 10), tendinopathic (n = 10), torn (n = 9). Bar represents the median value. Data were analysed using the Kruskal-Wallis test; *p < 0.05 **p < 0.01 ***p < 0.001 ****p < 0.0001.
