Regulation of equine PECAM1 mRNA by wounding of thorax and limb skin. Total RNA was extracted from wound margin biopsies isolated 1, 2, 3, 4 and 6 weeks post-wounding, then used in mRNA expression analyses by semi-quantitative RT-PCR as described in Methodology. Bar graphs represent the average of measures, performed in triplicate, on the mRNA of the four horses included in the study. Top: Regulation of PECAM1 mRNA [amplified fragment (AF) 548 bp] in wound biopsies from the thorax and the limb. Bottom: Relative changes in PECAM1 mRNA in biopsies of thorax and limb wounds. The intensity of PECAM1 signals was normalized with the control gene GAPDH. Different letters denote samples that differed significantly (P < 0.05) from time 0 of the same site (a); between anatomic sites at the same time (B). Data are presented as means ± SEM.
