From: Newly developed TGF-β2 knock down transgenic mouse lines express TGF-β2 differently and its distribution in multiple tissues varies

Figure 3

Relative expressions of TGF-β2 in different tissues of Tg mice. Figure 3 showed the relative optical density (O.D.) of TGF-β2 protein levels in multiple tissues of Tg mice and that of WT ones (n = 6). Values plotted are means ± SD. * compared with WT, P < 0.05. According to formula of the down-regulated rates of TGF-β2 protein, the average down-regulated rates of the four transgenic lines were calculated and described as followed. The average rates were 52%, 25%, 13% and 2% in Founder 66, Founder 16, Founder 53 and Founder 41, respectively. The relative expressions of TGF-β1 proteins in Founder 66, Founder 16 and Founder 53 were significantly different compared with that of WT mice (P < 0.05).
