Figure 4

Expression data (mRNA levels) for betaglycan, decorin, syndecan, biglycan, MMP1 and FGF2 obtained from control (C), sporadic (SAD) and familial (FAD) Alzheimer’s disease fibroblasts treated or not with FGF2 (+). The mRNA levels were quantified by real-time quantitative PCR. Values were the mean ± SD of three independent experiments each performed in triplicate for n=10 subjects for group. Data were analyzed by ANOVA. The results were expressed as fold change in β-actin normalized mRNA values. Differences vs. mRNA levels in each respective control; *F-test significant at 99%; **F-test significant at 95%; NS = not significant. Differences vs. mRNA levels in each untreated group; §F-test significant at 99%; ns = not significant
