The Development of Macrophage-Mediated Cell Therapy to Improve Skeletal Muscle Function after Injury
Fig 8
Real-Time PCR evaluation of gene expression in gastrocnemius muscles 5 days post-reperfusion treated with saline or 2x106 M0 or M1 macrophages 24h after TK-I/R injury.
Gene expression of IGF-I (Igf1), CD206 (Mrc1) and PPAR-γ (PPARG) relative to saline. Values expressed as mean transcript values ± SEM; n = 3. 3- phosphoglycerate kinase (Pgk1) was used as internal reference gene. (*) p<0.05 compared to saline; (#) p<0.05 compared to M0D1, one-way ANOVA, Tukey-HSD post-hoc.
