Figure 9From: Deficient repair response of IPF fibroblasts in a co-culture model of epithelial injury and repairEffect of rh PDGF-AA and bFGF on A549 wound closure. (A) Real-time image illustrating wound closure of A549 epithelial monolayers in the presence of different ligands. (B) Presence of PDGF-AA and bFGF in culture medium significantly enhanced wound closure to levels comparable to complete medium control. ***P <0.001 compared to A549 under starvation conditions (A549 starv).Back to article page
